In collaboration with ASA and ACHE, this podcast discusses leadership’s role in establishing a patient safety culture that extends beyond a grassroots conversation. Adoption of high-reliability safety by senior leadership and board members is an absolute requirement for success. Patient safety culture must be clearly supported as a key mission by the governing board. The 25-minute Q&A-format discussion provides perspectives from clinical and administrative viewpoints.
