Role of Patient Safety Organizations in Improving Patient Safety

Published in the June 2019 issue of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America journal, the authors wrote “PSO programs provide a forum for understanding, collaboration, and translation of evidence into practice at a faster pace than traditional methods of scientific review and deliberation.”

In conclusion, Boulanger et al, emphasized, “Perhaps most importantly, PSO programs help to promote a culture of safety in support of medicine’s primary tenet to ‘primum non nocere,’ first, do no harm.”
