Patient Safety

Memorial Medical Center affirms that we offer "So Much…So Close" when it comes to the care and improvement of human life. This statement is the foundation of who we are and our passion for patient safety.

Patient Safety: Get Involved!
We urge you and your family to become part of our patient safety team.

For our patient safety program to be truly effective, we need you to be fully informed and actively involved in your care.

What does your involvement in patient safety mean to you and your family?
It means we need you to provide detailed information about your condition.
It means that you should clearly understand your diagnosis and treatment plan and know what to expect.
It means keeping us informed of any changes in your condition, good or bad, such as an allergic reaction to a drug.
It means we want you to speak up when you have a question about any aspect of your care.

We want you to become a partner in the development of a safe care plan. Your active involvement will help us consistently do the right thing at the right time for the right person - you.
