    你能帮助预防错误的唯一最重要的方法是成为卫生保健团队的积极成员.

    在你的医疗保健中发挥积极作用有三个步骤:

    1. Take part in decisions about your treatment
    2. Follow your treatment plan
    3. Watch for problems and be involved in solving them

    Speak up if you have any questions or concerns.

    • 你有权质疑任何与你的治疗有关的人.
    • 你可能想写下下次医生来访时要问的问题.

    问一下你住院期间负责照顾你的医生.

    You may have several doctors, including our physician hospitalists, handling different aspects of your care. 现在,当病人需要住院治疗时,许多家庭医生会自动将病人转介给住院医生小组. One doctor should be coordinating or in charge of your care.

    Identify yourself.

    • You will see many different people. You should identify yourself and why you are there.
    • Wear your name band at all times.
    • 知道你要做什么手术,并确保医护人员在同意手术前告诉你他们的计划.

    考虑询问所有与你有直接接触的卫生保健工作者是否洗手.

    洗手是防止感染在医院传播的重要途径.

    Describe your symptoms and/or pain clearly.

    当你住进医院时,带上你正在服用的所有药物的清单.

    • 或者把你的药装在原来的容器里带到医院.
    • 如果你把药物落在家里,让家人把它们拿过来.
    • Include all over-the-counter medications, home remedies, herbal medications including tea, vitamins and weight gain or loss products such as shakes, pills or bars. 有时,当你把它们和其他药物一起服用时,它们可能会很危险.
    • 让医生和护士知道你有任何过敏和反应类型或副作用.

    Understand your medication.

    • 你在医院服用的药物可能和你在家里服用的不一样.
    • Know what medications you are taking, why you are taking them, what they look like, what time you take them, and potential side effects.
    • If they look different, ask why!
    • Make sure your armband is checked before any medication is given.

    Help prevent falls.

    • 呼叫帮助下床或椅子,特别是如果你感到头晕或站不稳
    • Wear non-skid slippers or slipper socks

    当您出院回家时,请您的医生解释您的护理计划,以便您在家遵循.

    确保你了解你的药物,以及你要遵循的活动和饮食计划.

    Share any special needs.

    If you need assistance arranging special care or equipment, let your doctor, nurse or social worker know.

    Getting involved pays off!

    • Taking an active role in your care has many advantages.
    • 请放心,我们的主要目标和承诺是提供高水平的优质护理,帮助您实现最佳健康状态.
    • 你的医生、护士和其他医疗服务提供者欢迎你的参与.
