TI  - Adverse events among Winnipeg Home Care clients.
PG  - 127-34
AB  - Patient safety research has focused almost exclusively on hospitals, with few 
      studies investigating the safety of other healthcare sectors, including home 
      care. Before measuring patient safety in home care, this study first sought to 
      translate hospital-focused patient safety definitions and concepts to home care. 
      A context-appropriate approach to measuring adverse events (AEs) in home care was 
      developed using chart reviews prompted by a mixed screening process. These 
      methods were then applied to measure the incidence, type, severity, cause, 
      preventability and ameliorability of AEs among Winnipeg Home Care clients.
