A Victim's Perspective on Patient Safety
After a tragic car accident that took his wife in
2004, Mr. Barron's 17-month-old son, Josh, was
killed by a medication error at the hospital that
cared for him after the accident. Instead of get-
ting angry, he chose to use the experiences as a
platform for challenging individuals and institu-
tions to put patient safety first — and to remind
you that in an instant we can make fatal
decisions. See Mr. Barron live at
OR Excellence 2016 (orexcellence.com).
