Course Goal — The course provides members of the surgical care team with an introduction to the principles of patient safety and error management and provides them with practical tools that can be implemented in their care environment.

Target Audience — Recognizing that surgical safety is the product of the collective efforts of the entire care team, this course is directed at nurses and nurse practitioners, physician assistants, perfusionists, anesthesiologists, critical care physicians and surgeons. While the central focus is on cardiothoracic surgical care, the principles are universal and are applicable to all surgical specialties, making the course worthwhile for anyone involved in delivering surgical care.

Note: Approved by the American Board of Thoracic Surgery for Maintenance of Certification

Course Description — Improving patient care remains a constant mission for all members of the surgical team. The inaugural AATS Surgical Patient Safety Course has been designed to promote a culture of safety and reduce preventable patient harm by engaging, educating and equipping members of the cardiothoracic surgical team in the multidimensional approach to patient safety. Featuring didactic and interactive presentations and focused workshops, the course will provide attendees with the essential knowledge, skills and attitudes about patient safety that can improve care in the present and future.
