If you haven't read Atul Gawande's 2007 book, "Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance," please invest today. You will not be disappointed. I believe it is required reading for healthcare quality professionals, let alone clinical providers.
However, do not take my word for it. Listen, as this plastic surgeon praises Dr. Gawande for his scholarship and relevance.
I had the pleasure of meeting Atul Gawande, MD at the most recent Institute of Healthcare Improvement National Forum in Nashville, TN. Dr. Gawande is championing the surgical safety checklist that will be a germane element of the new IHI campaign: The Improvement Map.
