I first come to know the term to err is human during pharmacotherapy lessons back in year 3. Initially I have no idea what is this about. Is there a spelling error? How to pronounce the err word? eel? Ee? er???
Then later I've learnt that what it means is that everyone makes mistakes, no one is perfect. And it's closely link to our profession which is highly proned to medication errors. Med error is a very broad term which includes strength error, dose error, route error, patient error, disease error, the long list continues.
However, the whole purpose of this post is not to talk about Med error...
The phrase to err is human does not stand alone. It is not finished.
The complete one is actually
To err is human, to forgive divine.
See! How beautiful....
The healthcare propaganda was biased. Only half the picture was revealed.
