Recent Institute of Medicine reports, including the 1999
report “To Err is Human,” have drawn attention to the
continued need to address safety and quality issues in health
care. High reliability organizations (HROs) are able to reduce
errors through culture changes and technology while working
in an inherently high-stress, high-tempo environment.

co-founder and
principal of NOVACES
LLC, a management

This one-day workshop, designed for hospital middle
managers and nurse educators, will provide a basis for

help create a culture of safety, reduce the number of errors,
and meet safety, quality, and efficiency goals.
