WHO affirmed COVID-19 as a global public health concern on 30th January 2020. There is less literature concerning hospital readiness evaluation on disasters (Gul & Yucesan, 2021). However, there was a literature review and a consideration of institutional publications, guidance, and original research. Fifteen studies, most of which are relative to questionnaire-based assessment tools, revealed that human training and resources and the capability to familiarize in an appropriate way rank as the essential attribute. In this case, Patient safety is paramount. Hence, local protection standards entailing invasive measures are relative to high-level well-being values identified in the general surgical safety.
Patient Safety in the Hospitalized Setting during a Pandemic
“The 3 P’s model enhancing patient safety during the COVID-19 pandemic” by Nathwani & Rahman 2021 describes the experience of handling dental patients and the methodology used to address essential factors, facilitate safety, and lessen viral transmission risk in the fatal COVID-19 epidemic. According to (Nathwani & Rahman, 2021), the local safety standards need to implement a significant modification as extra features to address staff and patient safety in the COVID-19 epidemic. In this case, the three P’s approaches implementation entails an evidence-based methodology that divides the LocSSIPs protocol into protection, prevention, and preparation for the safety of healthcare staff and patients.
Through three P’s education, the article will be significant to the topic concerning patient protection in the hospitalized setting throughout a pandemic. The reason is that the model enhances a systematic framework to monitor protocols’ effectiveness, reduce the viral transmission risk, facilitate communication among colleagues, and support and provide a learning opportunity. Generally, the approach aims to improve patients’ and staff members’ safety. The model is also adaptable and flexible to ensure work continuity under frustrating and stressful circumstances where caregivers can safeguard their patients despite facing conflicts.
