Recommend Strategies to Mitigate Risk of Negligence Litigation Within Healthcare

Instructions

In Weeks 1 and 2, you read about the impact on an organization when it has a culture of hiding allegations of misconduct, failing to respond to complaints quickly or at all, and not addressing negligence or incompetence. As a healthcare executive, you want to avoid the potential loss of trust, erosion of consumer satisfaction, and low employee morale that results from a corporate culture that tolerates corruption.
