Assignment:
Think about the implications of an understaffed hospital emergency department. What would it feel like to be a patient or a staff member in this unit? What safety or operational risks might arise in an understaffed department? How might understaffing impact the quality of healthcare services delivered? Healthcare risks and healthcare quality are closely related, and many organizational problems simultaneously raise risks and reduce the quality of healthcare services delivered.
In this Discussion, you will identify and summarize scholarly literature that discuss the Six Domains of Quality in Healthcare and the ERM framework. In your analysis, you will examine the relationships between your sources and the interconnectedness of quality and risk.

- Locate at least three credible sources that discuss current publications, work, or applications of the Six Domains of Quality in Healthcare. For each of these sources, provide the reference and briefly summarize the sources.
- Locate at least three credible sources that discuss current publications, work, or applications of the ERM framework. For each of these sources, provide the reference and briefly summarize the sources.
- Explain how the credible sources relate to one another as well as the importance of this interconnectedness.
