Patient Safety

Nurses play a critical role in improving patient safety. They need fast and easy access to simple or complex care-related questions – whenever it's needed and wherever the nurse may be. 

Lippincott’s Nursing Solutions Helps Nurses Proactively Increase Patient Safety by: 

• Providing evidence-based online information and reference materials to support their efforts in reducing common healthcare errors such as:
  • Hospital-acquired conditions
  • Occurrence of complications and hospital readmissions
  • Procedural errors
  • Medication administration errors
  • Infections that result from a failure to follow evidence-based procedural steps such as bloodstream infections from central  lines
• Supporting compliance with current national guidelines and National Patient Safety Goals and alignment with regulatory agencies including The Joint Commission
• Building your staff’s confidence, clinical knowledge, and critical thinking skills
• Promoting accountability and competency
