Product Description

Checklists are proven tools for getting things done—and more importantly, getting things done the right way every time.  By providing a standardized approach, checklists simplify complex tasks and processes. When used consistently and correctly, a well-developed checklist can help to ensure safe patient care.

These tried-and-true checklists help organizations assess and evaluate tasks and processes, provide guidance for decision making, and itemize procedure steps and required “to-do’s.”  The book also includes blank checklist templates and encourages health care organizations to build their own checklists to tackle organization-specific challenges.
