This book addresses all issues relevant to error prevention and
safe practice in the acute and emergency health-care setting. It
begins with the basic principles of human behavior and decision
making and then partitions into three sections where the
individual, the team, and the organizational influences within
the health-care system are discussed in greater depth. Case
reports and proven strategies help to ground psychological theory
in daily practice. This book has emerged from a long-standing
cooperation between clinicians and psychologists and blends the
strengths of both professions into a readily accessible text.
