The Huron Perth Healthcare Alliance, in it’s commitment to quality and patient safety strongly supports the public reporting of patient safety indicators, as mandated by the Government of Ontario.  Patient Safety indicators are an important part of the continuous quality improvement process and are used by hospitals to track incident rates, identify areas for improvement, and set action plans for improvement.
