Sažetak
The establishment of a patient safety system in a hospital health care institution is accomplished by implementing standards aimed at preventing an adverse event that could harm the patient's health. This paper discusses aspects of patient safety and clinical risk management, analyzes the implementation of a patient safety system at Gospić General Hospital using the international accreditation standard, and discusses the changes in terms of improving the patient safety process that resulted. The study found that accreditation has a positive impact on the patient safety system. Accreditation has contributed to the improvement of existing processes for the identification and detection of adverse events and the establishment of new processes, including the process of detecting avoided adverse events (near miss), the process of monitoring medical errors, risk-based process based on own risk register and the process of surgical checklist World Health Organization. In addition, the accreditation has contributed
to raising awareness of the importance of recognizing and reporting an adverse event and developing a culture without punishing and learning from mistakes.
