Committed to Zero-Preventable Harm
The THA Board of Directors established its commitment to patient safety in December 2009 by adopting a board aim of zero preventable harm for Tennessee hospitals. The THA Board of Directors is committed to transparency and shares hospital-specific performance data at board meetings.
The Tennessee Hospital Association’s Tennessee Center for Patient Safety (TCPS) was launched in 2007 with funding from BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee Health Foundation. The purpose of TCPS is to advance the adoption of proven evidence-based strategies that improve the reliability, safety, and quality of care received in Tennessee hospitals.
