2. Everyday a large number of patients are
treated and cared for without incident by
health care practitioners worldwide.
Like other high risk industries safety incidents
occur during the course of medical
care, placing patients at risk for injury or
harm.
Over the past ten years, patient safety has
been increasingly recognized as an issue of

be done.

Patient safety is the absence of preventable
harm to a patient during the process of health
care. The discipline of patient safety is the
coordinated efforts to prevent harm, caused
by the process of health care itself, from
occurring to patients.
4. Leading cause of harm in hospitals in
developed countries

About a third are preventable
One medication error per patient per day
Most don’t result in harm
5. Individuals made
Errors that are done due the human factor in the process
( mix up , wrong calculations , not following the 5 rights in
medication administration )
system made
holes in the system that allows errors to slip through
( no clear and detailed policy and procedures, no double
checking system, no warning signs)
Environmental made
the dangers that come from the seating of the hospital and
the material and equipments used inside it ( no exit doors ,
warn out cables and cords )

15. Although many of the patient safety risk factors
that exist in medical settings also apply to
mental health settings
there are unique patient safety issues in mental
health that are
different to those in medical care.
Seclusion and restraint use, self-harming
behavior and suicide , absconding, and reduced
capacity for self-advocacy are particularly
prominent to mental health patients.
Both the patient population and the
environment make patient safety in mental
health unique.

comet suicide or to cause harm to themselves and placing
them under clues observation, exploring their thought
content and try to distract them away from such ideas and

environment in the wards away from any external
stimulators for such ideas and away from any harmful
object that he might use to cause harm to him self .
