SUMMARY:2026 Virginia Patient Safety Summit
DESCRIPTION:Safe Care\, Every Step of the Way: Advancing a Culture of Safety in Healthcare \nAbout the Event\nThe 2026 Virginia Patient Safety Summit will highlight work being done in Virginia and across the country to advance a culture of safety and continuous improvement in healthcare. By establishing a set of shared values and behaviors that prioritize patient safety and worker safety and wellbeing\, healthcare organizations can minimize errors\, improve outcomes\, and enhance the overall quality and experience of care. For highly reliable organizations\, a culture of safety describes a commitment to core values and principles that recognize the inseparable integration of both patient safety and worker safety. \nThe Virginia Hospital & Healthcare Association’s Center for Healthcare Excellence is proud to host this event in partnership with the Virginia Nurses Association/Virginia Nurses Foundation (VNA/VNF)\, the Medical Society of Virginia (MSV)\, the Virginia Pharmacists Association (VPhA) and the Virginia Society of Health-System Pharmacists (VSHP). Join us for this state wide gathering to learn about efforts to advance a culture of safety in healthcare every day\, every step of the way!
