Shared Voices - A Framework for Patient and Employee Safety in Healthcare

Heidi Raines

Summary

In Shared Voices, author and entrepreneur Heidi Raines shows how to systematically ensure the safety of patients and staff at healthcare facilities. Most medical errors occur because of flawed systems, not reckless practitioners, and systems can learn from errors. A just culture of care that protects everyone is possible through a framework of near-miss and incident reporting, equitable follow-up, analysis, and learning. Heidi, the founder and CEO of Performance Health Partners, has dedicated her career to designing solutions for healthcare organizations in need of knowledge and technology to deliver safe, equitable, and quality care. In this book, she argues that the way to foster more safety in healthcare facilities is to create organizational structures centered around reporting incidents and near-misses, then use systems thinking to resolve and prevent issues. And the best path to do this is to give voices to all healthcare workers by encouraging them to speak out and report observations about their work. Active staff engagement not only keeps patients and employees safe, but it also combats burnout and turnover. As points of care grow and training levels vary, it is paramount for healthcare leaders to establish a framework that sets caregivers up for success at every level and in every type of healthcare organization. Modernization may seem labored at first, but its longer-term results—including overall reduction in serious safety events, and the saving of lives—are ultimately the drivers of innovation. Shared Voices is Heidi Raines’ latest contribution to the world of healthcare patient and employee safety. She holds a Preceptor Faculty position at Tulane University’s Master of Health Administration program and serves as Board President of the American College of Healthcare Executives Women’s Healthcare Executive Network. Raines has received awards for innovation and executive leadership and was named one of the Top 100 Influential Entrepreneurs in Technology.

Surviving Hyperinflation -...

Petros Eshetu

HOW THE LESSONS OF ZIMBABWE’S FINANCIAL CRISIS TEACHES AMERICANS WHAT TO DO 
On November 14, 1997, the massive loans taken by the government of Zimbabwe came to a sudden halt and our currency nearly completely collapsed. We call it Black Friday. In one day, the US dollar went from being worth 12 Zimbabwe dollars...to $75. In the weeks that followed, we watched a loaf of bread go from $1 to $7. Gasoline was even worse. But the amount of money in our bank accounts was still the same. We were terrified. 
There was nothing the people of Zimbabwe could have done to prevent Black Friday, BUT…there were choices they could have made before that which might have protected them for when it hit. 
My concern is that I’m seeing some of the same issues coming up in the US that were on the horizon in Zimbabwe back then. This book helps readers see how they can protect themselves in these times when US inflation seems geared to get worse, not slow down. 
Although the two nations are different is so many ways, many economic influences cross all cultures, financial structures, and political agendas; the comparison is actually far more similar than many would think. 
Don't miss out on this crucial information that could make all the difference in your financial stability.

Strip Tees - A Memoir of...

Kate Flannery

This program is read by the author.“Compelling and brave, Kate’s story is a must read for all young women learning how to navigate adulthood and identity.” —Lili Reinhart, New York Times bestselling authorStrip Tees is a fever dream of a memoir—Hunter S. Thompson meets Gloria Steinem—about a recent college graduate and what happens when her feminist ideals meet the real world.At the turn of the new millennium, LA is the place to be. “Hipster” is a new word on the scene. Lauren Conrad is living her Cinderella story in the “Hills” on millions of television sets across the country. Paris Hilton tells us “That’s hot” from behind the biggest sunglasses imaginable, while beautiful teenagers fight and fall in love on The O.C.Into this most glittering of supposed utopias, Kate Flannery arrives with a Seven Sisters diploma in hand and a new job at an upstart clothing company called American Apparel. Kate throws herself into the work, determined to climb the corporate fashion ladder. Having a job at American Apparel also means being a part of the advertising campaigns themselves, stripping down in the name of feminism. She slowly begins to lose herself in a landscape of rowdy sex-positivity, racy photo shoots, and a cultlike devotion to the unorthodox CEO and founder of the brand. The line between sexual liberation and exploitation quickly grows hazy, leading Kate to question the company’s ethics and wrestle with her own. Strip Tees captures a moment in our recent past that’s already sepia-toned in nostalgia, and also paints a timeless portrait of a young woman who must choose between what business demands and self-respect requires.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
