Patient Safety Overview


Healthcare in America is poised to be the best in world. Extraordinary medical and technical advances, committed healthcare workers and rich resources represent the abundance of our system. Despite its promise, our system fails to consistently deliver the right care for every person, every time. To become the best healthcare system in the nation, Nebraska hospitals need better systems and processes for their workers and patients, and more rapid dissemination of proven approaches.

CIMRO of Nebraska works with senior leaders in critical access hospitals to access their organization's safety climate and develop methods to improve their organizational culture and enhance patient safety.
