Organizational accountability in a just culture
Abstract
Policies and procedures exist to safeguard patients and protect them from harm; however, a deeper understanding as to why a particular sentinel event occurred and less focus on the individual who made the error can have positive outcomes. Nursing leaders should strive to maintain a just culture to promote reporting and learning in their facility, thereby creating a culture of safety for patients.
