Abstract

Welcome to Public Health Moment from the University of Minnesota. This week is National Patient Safety Awareness Week. What can patients and their families do to ensure their own safety.

One is in the area of hospital design.<clip: Potthoff adds that the University of Minnesota has added several inter-professional courses for students in medicine, nursing, public health and pharmacy to address those communications issues and improve team health care. With another Public Health Moment, I’m John Finnegan.
