Description

One positive result from the Patient Safety and Quality Act of 2005 was Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs).

In this episode of Speak Up for SaferCare, listen as Karen Kendrick MSN, RN and the VP of Clinical Initiatives and Quality for the Texas Hospital Association, describes PSOs and how they improve patient safety and quality of care.
