We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

4
Represent proactive strategies to reduce
the risk of medical error.
Provide clear priorities and solutions for
improving patient safety.
Promote specific improvements in patient safety.
It is essential that EVERYONE - familiar and
able to incorporate into daily practice.
9. INTERNATIONAL PATIENT SAFETY GOALS (IPSG)
1.Identify Patients Correctly.
2.Improve Effective Communication.
3.Improve the Safety of High-alert Medications.
4.Ensure Correct-Site, Correct-Procedure, Correct-Patient
Surgery.
5.Reduce the Risk of Health Care-Associated Infections.
6.Reduce the Risk of Patient Harm Resulting from Falls.
11. 1. Identify Patients Correctly
The hospital develops and implements a process to improve accuracy of patient i
dentification.
2. Two-fold Intent :
• FIRST, to identify the individual as the person for whom the service or treatme
nt is intended.
• SECOND, to match the service or treatment to that individual.
• Patients must be identified using “two unique identifiers” i.e. FULL NAME and
MEDICAL RECORD NUMBER (MRN).
12. 4. MUST NEVER use patient’s room or location to identify patient.
5. ALWAYS ask the patient / guardian / parent to verbalize patient’s
name whenever possible
6. “Time-out” before starting all surgical and invasive procedures
e.g.:-
• Administering medications, blood, or blood products.
• Serving a restricted diet tray.
• Providing radiation therapy.
• Taking blood and other specimens for clinical testing.
• performing cardiac catheterization or diagnostic radiology procedure.
14. 1. The hospital develops and implements a process to
improve the effectiveness of verbal and/or telephone
communication among caregivers.
Verbal medication orders are reserved for code/emergency situations ONLY.
When receiving a medication telephone order from a physician:
• Nurse A writes the order in the physician order sheet.
• Nurse B will read back the order written by Nurse A to the physician.
• The prescriber will verify the order is correct to Nurse B.
Both Nurse A and Nurse B must document the date and time the order was
received, badge number of the prescriber, and their own names, job title and
badge numbers and both must sign the order sheet.
15. 2. The hospital develops and implements a process for
reporting critical results of diagnostic tests.
• The technologist/reporter will provide the report to the Receiver
(Requesting Physician/Ward Nurse).
• The receiver will document (hand -WRITE) the critical results.
• The receiver (or another person - could be another nurse) will READ BACK
the information provided, including the patient’s medical record number and
name to the reporter.
• The technologists/reporter will verify the information is correct.
• Both the reporter and the receiver must document the READ BACK
verification procedure was carried out; date and time the report was received,
badge number of the person providing/receiving the report.
• IMPORTANT : -- ALWAYS REMEMBER to carry and answer your bleep … you will
be informed regarding critical results !!
16. 3. The hospital develops and implements a process for
handover communication.
• During shift changes.
• Between different levels of care (General ward to Critical care).
• From inpatient units to diagnostic units (endoscopy, physiotherapy, Cath. La
b, etc.).
• When endorsing assignments of a patient for an extended period such as po
st call duty; meal breaks.
• When referring any abnormal values or change in patient's condition to the
physician.
17. 4. Handovers of patient care:
ALWAYS
REMEMBER
The standardized approach
to patient care handover,
namely ISBAR, must be used
by all healthcare workers
(Physicians, Pharmacists,
Residents and all other
Healthcare Professionals)
19. 1. The hospital develops and implements
a process to improve the safety of
high-alert medications.
High Alert Medications
• Medications that pose an increased risk of causing
significant harm to patients if used in error.
• Independent double checks in handling is one of the
safety measures.
20. 2.Look alike & Sound alike.
• Use TALL man Lettering labels for (Look-Alike,
Sound-Alike) LASA medications that are available via the
Internet, One Stop Resource.
• Look-Alike, Sound-Alike medications without approved
TALL Man Lettering will be labelled as “Name Alert”.
• Be aware of automated alerts/advisories for LASA
medications that are in the HIS-CPR System.
• Logistics & Contracts Management will consider the
List of Look-Alike, Sound-Alike Medications in the process of
medication procurement. PURCHASE FOR SAFETY.
21. 3. The hospital develops and implements a process
to manage the safe use of concentrated electrolytes
Concentrated Electrolytes :
Are high alert medication that must be first diluted prior to
parenteral administration , to ensure patient safety.
• Stored and kept in a locked cabinet, with a similar sign in/out
procedure used for Narcotics and Controlled Substances.
• Separated from other medications and stored in red boxes with lids.
• Labeled with “High Alert Medication / Concentrated Electrolyte”.
• Limited to certain areas only – critical.
24. 1. The hospital develops and implements a process for e
nsuring correct-site, correct-procedure, and correct-pa
tient surgery.
Wrong-site, wrong- procedure, wrong-patient
• Rare but consequences -- are catastrophic.
• It is certainly PREVENTABLE.
The Universal Protocol:
• Marking the surgical site.
• A preoperative verification process.
• A time-out that is held immediately before the anesthetic or start of an
invasive procedure.
25. (CONT’)
Marking the surgical site should:
be made by the person performing the procedure with a permanent
skin marker.
takes place with the patient AWAKE and AWARE, if possible.
To be done in all cases involving laterality (right, left), multiple structures
(fingers, toes, lesions) or multiple levels or region (spine).
be done using an instantly recognizable mark (ARROW as per policy) that is
consistent throughout the hospital
28. Reduce the Risk of Health Care-Associated
Infections
GOAL(5)
29. • The hospital adopts and implements evidence-based hand-hygiene
guidelines to reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infections
• Wash hands with soap and water when hands are visibly soiled.
• Use alcohol-based hand rub when hands are not visibly soiled
• ABHR is ineffective - spore forming bacteria e.g. Clostridium difficile.
ALWAYS REMEMBER -- wash your hands !!!!
30.
31. Reduce the Risk of Patient Harm Resulting
from Falls
GOAL(6)
32. 1. The hospital develops and implements a process
to reduce the risk of patient harm resulting from
falls.
• A process for assessing all inpatients and outpatients - identifies
them as at high risk for falls.
• A process for the initial and ongoing assessment, reassessment,
and interventions.
• Have measures implemented to reduce fall risk.
33. 2. Fall Prevention Program
• Multidisciplinary Team Effort
( Nurses - Pharmacists - Physiotherapist - Physicians )
• Upon initial admission assessment, Physicians should screen Patient’s
Functional status which include “FALL RISK”.
• Functional Screening should be documented in the Physicians
History and Physical form complimented by nurses’ assessment.
• Communicate to nurses for implementation.
