These past two days have been a whirlwind of emotions and reflections on my own personal experiences. The stories that have been shared and the thought provoking discussions have been eye-opening. There is so much the healthcare systems needs to fix. To be honest, at times it seems more overwhelming than inspiring. But I figure if there is just one simple thing I can do to make one patient safe, than I’ve made a difference. If I do multiple simple things to improve my patients’ safety, then an even bigger impact can be made. I want to take it one step at a time and there are already ideas that have been shared that I hope to bring back to my medical school so at least introduce my classmates into the essential world of patient safety.
