Patient Safety News & Notes

NCPS hosted a table at NHA's June 10th Rural Health Conference in Kearney. Current NCPS members, as well as persons unfamiliar with the services and collaboration available to members of a Patient Safety Organization, engaged with NCPS consultant, Russ Buzalko, PhD, MAS.

NCPS enjoyed 2 days of interactions with current NCPS members and the opportunity to speak with persons unfamiliar with Patient Safety Organizations. We thank members for their continued support and contributions to NCPS and all physician assistants for the incredible work they do in their care of patients.

Join us for our December 2023 educational series on Improving Your Root Cause Analysis. In it you will gain knowledge of RCA methods and tools taken from the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, the Veterans Health Administration National Center for Patient Safety, and actual events reported to NCPS.
