At VPQHC, we believe healthcare quality starts with patient safety. Rutland Regional Medical Center (RRMC) was recently featured for its ongoing efforts to strengthen patient safety, enhance communication, and build a culture of quality care.
Patient safety isn’t just about policies—it’s about people. At RRMC, initiatives focus on strengthening communication across teams, using real-time data to enhance care decisions, and continuously seeking ways to improve processes. Their approach has not only created safer environments for patients but also empowered staff with the tools and training necessary to deliver high-quality care every day.
These efforts reflect a broader mission we share: ensuring that all patients receive care in settings where safety is the top priority. RRMC’s story serves as a powerful example of what’s possible when healthcare teams work together to put patient safety first.
We’re thrilled to see these initiatives gaining recognition and hope they inspire other hospitals across the state to prioritize safety and quality in new and innovative ways.
