Advances in Human Factors and Ergonomics in Healthcare
by
Based on recent research, this book discusses how to improve quality, safety, efficiency, and effectiveness in patient care through the application of human factors and ergonomics principles. It provides guidance for those involved with the design and application of systems and devices for effective and safe healthcare delivery from both a patient and staff perspective.
The Human Contribution
by
The purpose of this book is to explore the human contribution to both the reliability and resilience of complex well-defended systems. The predominant mode of treating this topic is to consider the human as a hazard, a system component whose unsafe acts are implicated in the majority of catastrophic breakdowns. But there is another perspective, one that has been relatively little studied in its own right, and that is the human as hero, a system element whose adaptations and compensations have brought troubled systems back from the brink of disaster on a significant number of occasions.

Managing Healthcare Compliance
by
Compliance with healthcare laws and regulations has been a concern to healthcare providers since the days of Ancient Babylon. Under the Code of Hammurabi, which was adopted in 1750 B.C. and is thought to be the oldest promulgation of laws in human history, a doctor who was convicted of inept surgery was punished by amputation of his hands. Some 3,750 years later in the United States, new fraudfighting laws combine with a confounding system of healthcare reimbursement to punish inept healthcare practices in a similarly unforgiving manner. Healthcare compliance is the most perilous and compelling topic that today's healthcare providers and executives face.
The Tracks We Leave
by
Amid the turmoil of constant change, healthcare executives frequently find themselves in situations where the ethical "rules" may be unclear. Rarely is there a single ethical issue to resolve. More often, numerous intertwined issues with many stakeholders interested in the outcome clamor for attention. The Tracks We Leave: Ethics in Healthcare Management provides guidance to executives dealing with the competing values and moral conflicts inherent in healthcare. The book uses cases, discussion, and essays to bring to life debates on issues surrounding medical errors, whistle blowing, sexual harassment and gender discrimination, patient safety, workforce reduction, and personnel management.
