Riassunto

Nelle discussioni sulla sicurezza in sanità il termine cultura è usato in molti modi diversi ed esistono valutazioni differenti sulla sua importanza. Consideriamo per esempio le seguenti affermazioni, apparentemente contraddittorie, sulla cultura della sicurezza. Impegniamoci a trasformare una cultura della colpa, che nasconde informazioni sul rischio e sull’errore, in una cultura della sicurezza, che esplicita le informazioni e ci mette in grado di prevenire gli errori o di correggerli rapidamente, prima che determinino danni al paziente. (Leape et al, 1998). Una sorta di miscela letale di impazienza, ignoranza scientifica e ingenuo ottimismo può avere pericolosamente amplificato le nostre aspettative sulla cultura della sicurezza. (Cox, Flin, 1998)
