INTRODUCTION
Patient safety is an integral part of value-based healthcare. Ensuring patient safety can lead to
faster recovery times, which, in turn, leads to lower costs of care. When combined, these factors
result in improved patient satisfaction. Ensuring patient safety requires professional nurses to be
proactive in identifying potential safety concerns and proposing evidence-based solutions to
mitigate those concerns across the healthcare continuum.
Your goal for this task is to clearly and concisely propose a recommendation that addresses an
identified patient safety issue within your practice setting, using convincing evidence to promote
the necessity for change.
