How health professionals react to their own commission of serious medication errors.
It is our intention to learn about how health professionals react to commission of a serious error and learn more about how these situations are handled, in a supervisory sense, by hospital officials. From the information collected, we hope to be able to profile the people who are most likely to make serious errors, learn more about the environment for such disasters, and finally, establish a list of recommendations for supervisory personnel to use in handling the employee making a serious error.
