Working group, 2004
Ministero della Salute
•Methods and tools for reporting
– Sentinel Events
– Advers events
– Near Misses
•Education and training
– General framework on national training
– Basic course for all Health professional
•Recommendation:
to provide health professionals and administrators with information
on high risk medications that have the potential to cause serious or
catastrophic harm to patients. The aim is to raise awareness of the
potential harm and provide a strategy for local level response (KCl).
