New AHA videos share strategies for enhancing patient safety
The AHA Sept. 26 launched a new video series in which former AHA Board Chair Mindy Estes, M.D., has conversations with hospital and health system leaders about strategies that executives and boards are taking to advance patient safety and quality. The first two videos in the series feature discussions with Greg Bentz, chairman of BJC Healthcare, and Jack Lynch, president and CEO of Main Line Health. New videos in the series, which is part of AHA's Patient Safety Initiative, will feature leaders from organizations that have been recipients of AHA’s Quest for Quality Prize.
