Improve Patient Safety

Famous quotes containing the words improve, patient and/or safety:

    Being a father
    Is quite a bother . . .
    You improve them mentally
    And straighten them dentally, . . .
    They’re no longer corralable
    Once they find that you’re fallible . . .
    But after you’ve raised them and educated them and
    gowned them,
    They just take their little fingers and wrap you around
    them.
    Being a father
    Is quite a bother,
    But I like it, rather.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    God bless the physician who warms the speculum or holds your hand and looks into your eyes. Perhaps one subtext of the health care debate is a yen to be treated like a whole person, not just an eye, an ear, a nose or a throat. A yen to be human again, on the part of patient and doctor alike.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    Love no man in good earnest, nor no further in sport
    neither, than with safety of a pure blush thou mayst in
    honor come off again.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
