Los Alamitos Medical Center - Improving Patient Safety
Los Alamitos Medical Center, a 167-bed facility in Los Alamitos, California, used best practices and peer-to-peer learning to reduce harm across the board. By benchmarking data, improving patient safety reporting systems, and improving processes for communicating--with shift-to-shift rounds, daily huddles and 'tempo' boards--the hospital prevented 108 harms in one year. Los Alamitos Medical Center was part of the AHA/HRET Hospital Engagement Network.
