Pearls of Wisdom
Doug Winfrey and Dr. Wallach discuss news article regarding ways to avoid being the victim of a hospital mistake. First they state that if someone goes to the hospital and are given a prescription the patient should question the doctor about it. Asking if it is the right med or if the med with be a problem with meds already being taken. Make sure the patient is the right one for a procedure or tests. If the patient is going to have a procedure make sure the surgeon gets the right site by marking it. The patient should ask every healthcare worker they come in contact with wash their hands or use a sanitizer. If an antibiotic is prescribed ask the doctor if the infection is bacterial or viral.
