This week on the New Books shelf, check out the 2009 ACHE Book of the Year: Why Hospitals Should Fly, by John J. Nance, JD. Within the context of a fictional hospital, Nance parallels real aviation disasters and hospital sentinel events to make recommendations for a culture of safety within hospitals.
Why Hospitals Should Fly includes a foreward by Jefferson’s own David B. Nash, M.D., M.B.A., and packages a very serious issue into an entertaining and insightful read.
