    Peter Lachman explains why safety must be embedded into what we do every day, not what we do only after harm has occurred, and why we need to constantly ask ourselves “what do we need to do to be safe?” His new book, Oxford University Press Handbook of Patient Safety, translates the complex patient safety theories into actions that frontline staff can take to be safe.
