Hey all,
I'm curious, has anyone had a hard time instituting the Time'out and Surgical Site marking in their workplace(i.e, has anyone gotten resistance from MDs about doing timeout/surgical site marking)? I know that where I work, we had resistance from a few MDs (2 names were brought up at a staff meeting about it), but now it's a non-issue. Last week at inservice we were told we had to start including patient positioning, special needs, implants, etc..in out timeout. I checked out JCHAO's website and it was mentioned as above. I look forward to your responses...thanks
