Precursor safety events occur when the health care error reaches the patient and results in no harm or minimal detectable harm. For example, the nurse may do a finger stick to check a blood sugar for Ms. Johnston when it was ordered for Ms. Johnsen. The error has reached the patient but has resulted in minimal harm, in this case a finger stick. Like near miss safety events, precursor safety events should be reported so that they can be used to improve care.
