[Risk management in hospitals: update and prospect].
Recently introduced in Europe, the concept of risk management is now recognised in hospitals. The end of the 90s was noted in particular for the social emergence of nosocomial risks. Tolerated or accepted in the past as just bad luck, they are no longer acceptable today: hospitals must be safe. If hospitals cannot guarantee the total safety of health care, they must manage as far as possible the risks incurred by the patients within the hospital. Risk management is the insurer's job. It is also a new hospital profession and a future concern to meet tomorrow's ever increasing patient demands for safe health care.
