Popis: | Condition HELP is a unique pediatric patient safety program that gives families an immediate voice in their child's medical care. This patient safety endeavor allows parents to call a telephone number at any time-24 hours a day, 7 days a week-if they feel their hospitalized child's immediate health is endangered. The Condition HELP call receives the same immediate attention as a life-threatening emergency, including deployment of a specialized rapid response team to the child's bedside. This article presents a 2-year analysis of pediatric patient safety outcomes following the implementation of the program. |
