Lessons from Ireland: weaving the care continuum in the systemic treatment of cancer
Byadmin 05/17/202605/27/2026

The cancer treatment phase has changed profoundly. For years, much of the healthcare system has been built around a recognizable image: the patient arriving at the day hospital for chemotherapy. That image still exists, but it is no longer sufficient to explain the current reality. For the purposes of this reflection, the…

Patient admission and management processes: determinants in the patient safety system
Byadmin 04/19/202605/27/2026

Admissions services play a vital role in patient safety by intervening in the initial stages of the care process and during key transitions along the patient journey. Although traditionally considered administrative functions, their direct impact on scheduling, appointment planning, patient identification, reception, and coordination…

Private medicine, the origin of healthcare in Spain
Byadmin 04/05/202605/30/2026

In Spain, debates are too often framed from rigid positions that lead to polarizations which contribute little or nothing to even minimally constructive reflection. And this also happens in healthcare. The debate is frequently framed in terms of opposition: whether it should be private or public, whether public healthcare should be…

Cardiovascular care in Spain: from a solid clinical foundation towards strategic integration
Byadmin 03/10/202605/31/2026

Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death in Spain. In recent years, both the Ministry of Health and the autonomous communities have promoted numerous initiatives to improve prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of these conditions. However, when the actual progress of these diseases is analyzed from a broader perspective…

The “gibberish” of incident reporting systems in Spain. Towards the necessary integration
Byadmin 03/01/202603/01/2026

Reporting is one of the cornerstones of patient safety. It is used to communicate incidents, errors, and adverse events—events that compromise or may compromise clinical practice. Its value is organizational. It transforms failure into structured information, and that information into institutional learning. Each reported incident feeds into a system…

Lessons from France: the cardiovascular care continuum as a health model
Byadmin 02/21/202602/28/2026

Cardiovascular diseases follow clinical trajectories that unfold over time. They begin with the accumulation of risk factors, progress through acute episodes of varying intensity, and continue through phases of stability, relapse, or chronicity. Their management demands more than just occasional technical excellence: it requires consistent organizational approach throughout the entire process…

The breast cancer care process from the perspective of primary care
Byadmin 02/14/202602/28/2026

Each professional field interprets the care process from its own position within the system. Incorporating these different perspectives is what allows for a deeper understanding of how healthcare actually works. When we think about breast cancer, the immediate references are usually screening, oncology, radiology, or surgery. It's a…

Handwashing: a practice with almost two centuries of history
Byadmin 02/01/202602/28/2026

Medicine knew that handwashing saved lives before it even knew microorganisms existed. Today we know both. And yet, we keep reminding ourselves of the same thing. Perhaps because the real challenge was never scientific, but cultural. Some movies end when the credits roll. And others continue inside you, because…

To Err Is Human: when “more” is not necessarily “better”
Byadmin 01/29/202607/23/2026

The Importance of an Organized System in Patient Safety In 1999, the Institute of Medicine published the report To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System. That document marked a turning point in the understanding of patient safety: it quantified a problem that had previously been largely invisible, and…

The surgical waiting list put into population perspective: Beyond the waiting list
Byadmin 01/23/202602/28/2026

The Population Healthcare Pressure Indicator (IPAP) Surgical waiting lists have been part of the healthcare debate for years. They are usually analyzed as a number: how many patients are waiting for a procedure at a given time. This approach, although descriptive, is insufficient to understand the true magnitude of the problem and, above all, to compare it between different regions….

Screening saves lives, but it does not reduce the incidence of breast cancer.
Byadmin 01/14/202602/28/2026

Sustained Improvement in Care: Breast cancer care has steadily improved in recent decades. This progress is not due to a single factor, but rather to the convergence of multiple elements: earlier detection, continuous improvements in treatments, better structured screening programs, and…

Lessons from Denmark: Telephone 1813 to regulate healthcare pressure… beyond 112
Byadmin 01/08/202602/28/2026

There is much to learn from other countries in the management of healthcare emergencies. Systems that have understood that the problem is not only one of care, but also of organization: how demand is regulated, how access is managed, and how the system's most intensive resource is protected. This post will not provide a general overview…
