New Action Planning Tool Available for AHRQ Safety Culture Surveys

A new Action Planning Tool for AHRQ Surveys on Patient Safety Culture is now available. After assessing patient safety culture, organizations may use the planning tool to determine steps needed for improvements. The resource provides step-by-step guidance to develop an action plan to improve patient safety culture. Organizations may find it useful, for example, to brainstorm the potential barriers to implementing initiatives, as well as strategies to overcome them. The Action Plan Template is designed to record the goals, initiatives, resources needed, process and outcome measures and timelines.
