Medical care today depends on the interactions between many different individuals and parts of the healthcare system. Knowledge of complexity is central to improving the quality and safety of care. Medical errors arise because of system failures—ineffective communication and collaboration between care providers. The scientific study of complexity provides immediate insight into improving the system of care. This program will introduce you to complexity science and show you how to apply it in your healthcare organization.
