What are the Guidelines for Patient Safety?

Patient safety is a top priority in nursing practice. The Joint Commission provides comprehensive standards to enhance patient safety, including guidelines on fall prevention, pressure ulcer prevention, and safe patient handling. Nurses should conduct regular risk assessments and implement appropriate safety measures, such as using non-slip footwear for patients and ensuring that bed rails are properly used.
