AHRQ and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation have jointly sponsored the development of a new 1,400 page patient safety resource for nurses. Patient Safety and Quality: An Evidence-Based Handbook for Nurses. The handbook examines the broad range of issues involved in providing high quality and safe care across health care settings.
Nurses need know what proven techniques and interventions they can use to enhance patient outcomes.This three-volume resource-rich handbook contains 89 contributions that represent the work of a broad range of nurses and other patient safety researchers throughout the nation. Go to http://www.ahrq.gov/qual/nurseshdbk/ to review the handbook. A print copy of the publication or a CD-ROM is available by sending an e-mail to ahrqpubs@ahrq.hhs.gov.
