REMINDER: Share Your SOPS™ Survey Improvement Story



We are still looking for SOPS™ Survey Improvement Stories

Has your organization achieved success in improving your patient safety culture scores on one of the Surveys on Patient Safety Culture™ (SOPS™)? If so, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) would like to showcase your story so that others can benefit from your experience. We are looking for examples of organizations that have successfully improved their scores on the Hospital, Medical Office, Nursing Home, Community Pharmacy, or Ambulatory Surgery Center Surveys on Patient Safety Culture. We are especially interested in hearing your answers to the following questions:

1. How have you used results from one of the Surveys on Patient Safety Culture to identify improvement opportunities?
2. What specific initiatives or strategies did you use to improve your scores?
3. How much did your patient safety culture scores improve?
4. What did you learn from your improvement efforts that might benefit other organizations?

Our aim is to identify improvement stories we can share through a national webcast series or case studies on the SOPS web site.

If you have an improvement story to share, or if you have any questions, please email us by January 31 at SafetyCultureSurveys@westat.com with “SOPS Improvement Story” as the subject line.

We look forward to hearing from you!
