Preventing Medical Errors in Nutrition & Dietetics is a new video-based CE course presented by Dr. Susan Mitchell and Dr. Cathy Christie, filmed during the 2014 FAND Annual Symposium. It addresses the impact of medical errors on today’s healthcare with a focus on root cause analysis, error reduction and prevention, and patient safety in the practice of nutrition and dietetics. Real life stories, national healthcare safety trends, reporting of sentinel events, complying with HIPAA privacy and security rules, telehealth practices, and caring communication techniques are addressed. Printable hand-outs, a glossary and online resources are provided. This course satisfies the requirements of the Florida State Legislature mandating a 2-hour medical errors course for health professionals. This course satisfies the Florida requirement that all licensed dietitians and nutritionists complete a 2-hour course on medical errors during each license renewal period.
