[Risk management from the physician's perspective].
Risk Management in a hospital is intended to recognise, manage and potentially eliminate existing risks by implementing suitable preventive measures as early as possible. Physicians in all areas of responsibility in a hospital are called upon to support such efforts by active co-operation. Co-operation and communication, a clear distribution of responsibilities, obligatory instructions, elimination of organisational deficiencies, regular information to staff and circulation of written agreements are both useful and necessary.
