    Abstract Abstract Over the past 2 decades, patient safety has become an established priority in human healthcare. There is a large body of research in human medicine on harm caused by healthcare, its impact, and interventions to prevent it. There are also numerous guidelines, policies, and regulations to improve safety. An important realization has been that the same errors that harm patients can also harm members of the healthcare team. Empathetic handling of safety incidents can have positive effects on both the wellbeing of providers and their care of patients. An essential element in patient safety is the creation of a “culture of safety” within the health care team. A strong culture of safety describes a work environment where risk is acknowledged, individuals can report errors without fear of punishment, and the organization has a commitment to collaboratively implementing system changes to prevent future errors. A key element of safety culture is ensuring that healthcare team members are supported and asked to help create solutions for safer care. The principles of safety science and practices to improve safety have not yet been widely adopted in veterinary medicine. We describe a case of a serious medication error and how it was handled to illustrate key components of a culture of safety and a system‐based approach to improvement. This case is timely as a recent review of patient safety events in 3 veterinary hospitals found medication‐related errors to be the most frequently reported events. Open conversations about safety events and errors that can harm not only our patients but also our healthcare teams will help veterinary professionals learn from their mistakes, support members of the team, and prevent future harm.

    Abstract Reflecting on the efforts to provide acute emotional support to health care workers (HCWs) before and after the COVID‑ 19 pandemic, 3 guiding principles are proposed for health care organizations, with the aim to support their workers by an efficient combination of disciplines and resources: 1) normalize the use of support resources for HCWs; 2) assess actual needs rather than act on assumptions; 3) reduce barriers for HCWs to get the support they need. Each of these principles is described in terms of their usefulness and potential for further developments that might provide better emotional support for HCW in the future.

    Abstract Background: Studies have documented that utilizing peer feedback can enhance students' English academic writing skills. Little is known, however, about the effects of incorporating peer feedback to enhance English as a second language (L2) medical students' academic writing performance.
    Methods: This longitudinal interventional study examines Chinese medical students' English academic writing skills development via peer feedback in four parallel classes over an 18-week semester between the experimental and control groups (n = 124).
    Results: Significant increases in the experimental group's performance in the post-test were found after 18-week instructions (pre- vs. post-test: overall score, p < .001; task response, p < .001; coherence and cohesion, p < .001; lexical resource, p < .001; grammatical range and accuracy, p < .001), and the effects were retained in the delayed post-test 6 weeks later (post- vs. delayed post-test: overall score, p = .561; task response, p = .585; coherence and cohesion, p = .533; lexical resource, p = .796; grammatical range and accuracy, p = .670). Little improvement was found in the control group in the post-test (pre- vs. post-test: overall score, p = .213; task response, p = .275; coherence and cohesion, p = .383; lexical resource, p = .367; grammatical range and accuracy, p = .180) or the delayed post-test (post- vs. delayed post-test: overall score, p = .835; task response, p = .742; coherence and cohesion, p = .901; lexical resource, p = .897; grammatical range and accuracy, p = .695). Between-group comparisons indicate that the experimental group outperformed the control group in the post- and the delayed post-tests, as shown in their overall score and scores on the four components.
    Conclusions: Incorporating peer feedback into process-oriented medical English writing classroom teaching can effectively enhance Chinese medical students' English academic writing skills over time, while the traditional product-oriented writing instructions had little help in improving Chinese medical students' academic writing skills. This longitudinal intervention study develops our understanding of the effectiveness of peer feedback in L2 academic writing pedagogy. It offers instructional implications for L2 writing teachers to teach English academic writing among medical students in China and beyond. Limitations and suggestions for future studies are discussed.
