dc.description.abstract | The application of safety checklists to healthcare settings to help systematise routines and improve communication between healthcare professionals has proven to be effective in reducing errors, complications, mortality and hospitalisation time. There is a new call to extend the checklist concept to develop safety checklists that can be used by patients to help empower their involvement in safety practices. Only a handful of studies around patient-completed checklists exist, but those that do indicate a positive impact on patient empowerment and involvement in safety-related behaviours. In this article, we present the concept of patient-completed checklists and provide a review of the existing evidence, highlighting important design and implementation considerations, and making recommendations for future research and development. | en_US |
