December Safety Salute | The Schwartz Center
This December, CRICO would like to deliver our Safety Salute to The Schwartz Center.
The Schwartz Center for Compassionate Healthcare is dedicated to supporting health care providers and helping them deliver compassionate care. We have long been supporters of the Schwartz Center Rounds, which became especially important in Boston after the Marathon Bombing. The Schwartz Center Rounds offer a safe place where health care providers can openly discuss the stresses, emotional issues, and other “human dimensions of medicine.”
Tweet a congratulations to the Schwartz Center for all that they do.

An article in today’s New York Time's suggests that malpractice reform may be best served by an investment in patient safety. At CRICO, we have been following just this model for decades by offering grant awards to stimulate research and patient safety interventions intended to improve the quality and safety of patient care. There are several clear examples of how these interventions have made a distinct impact on improving patient safety, including the I-PASS Study Group; just awarded the John M. Eisenberg Award for Innovation in Patient Safety and Quality.
