However, the mixed method consists of combining quantitative and qualitative research approaches. The researchers conducted the study to identify the complexities that are characterized within the healthcare system. Also, the research addressed medical errors, behaviors, human interaction, team performance, and communication. By combining mixed method approaches, researchers can conclude the underlying reason for out-of-hospital care, interpersonal interactions, patient outcomes, and societal…
