Find an example of a specific sentinel event from a reputable website, The Joint Commission or news, and write the following:
Investigate a specific sentinel event, describe and discuss the event.
Provide an entire overview of what happened during the sentinel event. (Please pick a specific event that happened to a patient and discuss that event, i.e., if you wanted to look at postpartum hemorrhage that led to a patient death, you would find an article that specifically talks about an actual event to a patient that experienced the hemorrhage, then died.)
Identify the factors that contributed to this event.
Describe the role of nursing on prevention of future events.
