The candor toolkit | Nursing homework help

 
The Health and Human Services (HHS) Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality have developed CANDOR:
Communication and Optimal Resolution (CANDOR)
Communication and Optimal Resolution (CANDOR) is a process that health care institutions and practitioners can use to respond in a timely, thorough, and just way when unexpected events cause patient harm. This AHRQ toolkit, based on the CANDOR process, is intended to assist hospitals in implementing communication and optimal resolution programs.A traditional approach when unexpected harm occurs often follows a “deny-and-defend” strategy, providing limited information to patients and families, and avoiding admission of fault. In short, the CANDOR process is a more patient-centered approach that emphasizes early disclosure of adverse events and a more proactive method to achieving an amicable and fair resolution for the patient/family and involved health care providers.
