Senior Honors Projects

Nurses provide more than 80% of patient care worldwide. Unfortunately, this percentage does not correlate with the number of nurses involved in leadership roles.

In a just culture environment, organizations are accountable for systems they design and analysis of the incident, not the individual. The shift to a just culture is a slow process that takes years to develop and hardwire. Hospital-wide policies that incorporate …
