Bringing Just Culture Principles to Nursing Education: Supporting Practice Readiness
For years, healthcare has had a shame and blame focus when errors occur, blaming an
individual and assigning discipline. Research demonstrates that most errors have
many contributing factors and it is rarely the fault of a single individual. While
practice has moved toward just culture principles, nursing education has not, frequently
demonstrating a punitive response to student error. This presentation will provide
strategies to bridge this academic-practice gap, applying just culture principles
in the academic setting.
