Infection Prevention Goals Build Culture of Safety at Adventist’s White Memorial Medical Center

First few Article Sentences

White Memorial Medical Center, a member of Adventist Health’s not-for-profit, faith-based health system, has had notable success with safety initiatives. One of many California Hospitals that have taken on quality improvement measures focused on patient safety, the Los Angeles center uses a model adopted in 2008 from that of the Johns Hopkins Culture of Safety model. As part of that standard, White Memorial’s hospital governing board established a subcommittee called “Clinical Quality and Patient Safety” which examines patient safety and clinical outcomes on a monthly basis, keeping everyone on their toes.
