Chasing Zero: Winning the War
Chasing Zero: Winning the War on Healthcare Harm is hosted and narrated by Dennis Quaid. Following the near-death experience of his infant twins resulting from a medication error, he has initiated a call to action for healthcare leaders to invest in patient safety. The documentary reveals a series of short “arc to action” stories. Each story opens with a challenge and then tells how caregivers overcome such challenges with practices that everyone can adopt. The objective is to inspire the audience to act in their own communities or at their own hospitals.
