Patient Safety Awareness Week resources from PSQH

By Jay Kumar, PSQH

Patient Safety Awareness Week (PSAW) is coming to a close, but the focus on patient safety and healthcare quality will continue on as always. Thanks to all the dedicated professionals who work in healthcare organizations to provide top-notch care during these trying times. We highlighted some of these efforts this week and will continue to do so.
