Perspectives

“We have made aggressive efforts to put the strongest, most effective policies in place to eliminate surgical errors. But if we are not just as aggressive about enforcing every single point of those policies—demanding 100 percent compliance every time, from every single staff member—we are falling short. And that’s unacceptable.”

– John Murphy, MD, Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer, Rhode Island Hospital
