EDUCATION AND RISK MANAGEMENT IN THE CZECH HEALTHCARE FACILITIES: CASE OF NURSES' EDUCATION ABOUT PATIENTS' DISABILITY

JAN NEUGEBAUER, MAREK VOKOUN

Abstract:

This paper investigates the symbiotic relationship between education and risk management within Czech healthcare facilities, specifically focusing on nurses' education regarding patients' disabilities. On the sample of 1,200 respondents from Czech healthcare facilities, the survey results suggest that education levels significantly shape risk awareness, tool utilization, and risk integration. While positive trends are evident in the healthcare sector, concerns linger around interpreting assessment results, information sufficiency, and the shortening of nurses’ education. This study's broader implications inform ongoing discussions on nursing education and its impact on patient care quality. It underscores the essential role of comprehensive education in cultivating critical thinking, adept risk management, and patient-centered care. The study sets the stage for continued discourse and policy considerations, reinforcing patient safety, staff competence, and healthcare system resilience.
