First, Do No Harm is a dramatized case study telling the story of a system breakdown during the treatment of Ariana Romanov, a healthy obstetrics patient.
Based on actual facts drawn from the closed malpractice claims files of the Risk Management Foundation of the Harvard Medical Institutions, this 18-minute film is a wonderful tool for teaching a systems approach to patient safety. It is used by thousands of healthcare organizations in the United States and abroad.
Continuing the story, First, Do No Harm Part 2: Taking the Lead illustrates how one hospital might respond to a serious adverse event. This 19-minute dramatized case study focuses on the interaction among executives, clinical leaders, managers and board members in dealing with the unexpected. Accompanied by a Facilitator's Guide, Graduation Certificates and more than 40 minutes of expert commentary, its objective is to stimulate dialogue about how your healthcare community would handle similar circumstances.
The complete First, Do No Harm interactive training package is available through the Partnership for Patient Safety (P4PS).
