Medication Safety Solutions Kit
Helping You Improve Medication Safety
The valuable tools included in the Medication Safety Solutions Kit were developed by the Regional Medication Safety Program for Hospitals (RMSPH), an innovative program launched by the Health Care Improvement Foundation, an affiliate of the Delaware Valley Healthcare Council (DVHC), along with ECRI Institute and the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP).
The kit contains tools that are ideally suited for patient safety officers, risk managers, educational coordinators, quality improvement coordinators, performance improvement coordinators, CIOs, COOs, CEOs, vice presidents of patient care services, medical directors, pharmacy directors, and more.
