Exploring the experience of nurse practitioners who have committed medical errors: a phenomenological approach.
Delacroix R. Exploring the experience of nurse practitioners who have committed medical errors: A phenomenological approach. J Am Assoc Nurse Pract. 2017;29(7):403-409. doi:10.1002/2327-6924.12468.
This qualitative interview study of nurse practitioners who had made errors found that they experience complex reactions, including self-blame, concern for the patient, worries about their professional future, and feelings of failure. These results echo prior work about health care team members as second victims of medical errors.
