This article, recently published in the Medical Journal of Australia, calls for hospitals to model policies and practices that promote health and safety.
The authors argue that hospitals should focus on health as well as illness and that reorienting their policies to reflect this should be an “integral part of the push for quality and safety in clinical care and also contributes to the triple bottom line for health care: better patient experience of care; better population health through improved social and environmental impacts; and better financial performance.”
