Vizient PSO 2022 HRO and Safety Education Webinar Series - Creating a protected space for learning

November 16, 2022

Michael Callahan, a nationally recognized advisor to health care providers on the Patient Safety Act, will discuss the value of conducting privileged patient safety activities in a protected space to improve the quality of health care services and to reduce risk to patients. Organizations will learn how to best develop, update and implement your Patient Safety Evaluation System and related policies to address adverse patient events in a spirit of collegial and Just Culture approaches. Maximizing the privilege protections afforded under the Patient Safety Act will, in turn, lead to better patient outcomes.
