Summary
This book examines the concept of medical narcissism and how error disclosure to patients and families is often compromised by the health professional’s need to preserve his or her self-esteem at the cost of honouring the patient’s right to the unvarnished truth about what has happened. This ground-breaking book explores common psychological reactions of healthcare professionals to the commission of a serious harm-causing error and the variety of obstacles that can compromise ethically sound, truthful disclosure.
