In doing so, we will review the legal definition of negligence, the impact of culture on hospital reporting systems, how organizations and individuals can support a healthy and safe work environment, and how we can make improvements to healthcare systems to help reduce errors while also protecting ourselves as healthcare professionals and providers from potential litigation.
