Publisher's summary

This audiobook explores the sentinel report by the Institute of Medicine: To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System. The report estimated 98,000 Americans were dying each year due to medical errors. Since the report was released, annual deaths rose steadily to more than 440,000, which make deaths from medical errors the nation's third leading cause of death following cancer and heart failure. Prior investigations covered: How Many? Who? Where? What? and the economic and social costs of the continued increase of patient safety medical errors.

This audiobook investigates why the growth of these patient safety events and errors persist. Against the background of interprofessional education in healthcare, this audiobook takes a closer look at the information communicated to the public by medical schools. Relying on theories of education, data, and artificial intelligence with a bent toward revealing the degree to which patient error and patient safety is presented in precertification healthcare education, Dr. Ward asks the listener to consider "the degree to which a subject is taught represents the degree of its value".
