Look-alike, sound-alike medication names; 2. patient identification; 3. communication during patient hand-overs; 4. performance of correct procedure at correct body site; 5. control of concentrated electrolyte solutions; 6. assuring medication accuracy at transitions in care; 7. avoiding catheter and tubing misconnections; 8. single use of injection devices; and 9. improved hand hygiene to prevent health care-associated infection. Really an overlap from the Joint Commission #6 #IPSGs. Let's keep practising those interventions to keep medical practice safe
