Use of a comprehensive patient safety tool in primary care practices.
This article describes experiences with the use of the Physician Practice Patient Safety Assessment tool in six safety net practices—three of which were primary care nurse-managed health centers and three were physician-led federally qualified health centers. The authors concluded that this tool has enormous relevance for primary care settings, especially those preparing themselves for patient-centered medical home status and meaningful use.
