Re:
Prevention of Hospital Associated Infections in our Veteran’s Hospitals
Dear Mr.
Palacious,
Once again allow me
the thank you and all of the staff at the California Department of Public Health(CDPH)
for all that you do concerning patient safety, I really appreciate it!
At this time I would
like to draw attention to the HAI Liaison program, the technical aspects are
most profound, the direction is very encouraging but the logo, “HAI elimination”,
as you can imagine, impresses me the most, I do not even know what organization
it belongs to but support they will have!
The advocacy
for the Prevention of Hospital Associated Infections in our Veteran’s Hospitals
is dedicated to “supporting those who help others” and has identified the CDPH
as a critical component in the healthcare’s effort to create a more efficient
and safe, not only for California residents but also our Veterans and
healthcare facilities world-wide.
The following link takes you to an active
debate contained Institute for Healthcare Improvement LinkedIn forum:
You cannot Monitor improvement without Measuring...
Looking for
thought leader’s insight on this. It seems everyone has the same goals to make
your organization a better and SAFER place, but how?
Please support the development of some form of
“Database of Best Practices for the Prevention of HAI” one process, one
outcome!
Sincerely,
Michael H.
Slavinski
