The Center for Medical Simulation congratulates Robert Simon and fellow co-authors Michael St Pierre and Gesine Hofinger on the upcoming publication of the third edition of their book, Crisis Management in Acute Care Settings: Human Factors and Team Psychology in a High-Stakes Environment.

Crisis Management in Acute Care Settings comprehensively addresses how human decision making and human factors can affect patient safety in acute care. The text identifies frequent errors and allows healthcare professionals to improve patient safety and give more effective treatment in emergency situations. Springer calls this book, “The required reference for all who are learning about, teaching, or providing acute and emergency healthcare.”

Crisis Management in Acute Care Settings will be available in November 2016 from Springer, in print and electronically.
