Publication History

Publication Date:
11 June 2015 (online)

Fehler im Behandlungsverlauf haben nicht nur Folgen für ­Patienten und deren Angehörige – auch für das involvierte medizinische, ­pflegerische und therapeutische Personal können die Konsequenzen weitreichend sein. Psychische und somatische Beeinträchtigungen, reduzierte Leistungsfähigkeit und professionelle Verunsicherung bis hin zur Berufsaufgabe gehören zu den Auswirkungen. Eine gezielte Unterstützung im Umgang mit Behandlungsfehlern fehlt bislang weitgehend.
