Coming Soon…

The New Patient Safety Officer Society (PSOS.ORG) will soon be releasing a completely new collaborative and information sharing web portal for healthcare professionals engaged in reducing medical errors and adverse events.

The new portal is free of charge and designed specifically for healthcare professionals. The site includes:
  • topic blogs (relating to medical errors, error tracking, etc.),
  • message boards,
  • a site for posting materials to share and
  • an opt in message system to allow members who wish to exchange information with members who have opted to receive them.

When an adverse event takes place, studies show that dealing with the situation quickly can dramatically improve the patient’s outcome. In addition, responding quickly can benefit the healthcare organization through: reduced claims, lower insurance premiums, compliance with regulations and shorter lengths of stays. By improving the collaboration and sharing of information amongst patient safety professions, PSOS.ORG hopes to improve awareness of new techniques and methods. It is our hope that this new collaborative healthcare portal will help enhance safety for all patients.

Click here to open an email with the link to this site in the body of the message.  Help spread the word about this new collaborative portal dedicated to Patient Safety Professionals. 

The new site is planned for April 2008.  So bookmark this site now. 

The new PSOS.ORG portal will not sell member information or lists of members.  The confidentiality of members is a high priority.  Membership will be limited to those who are employed by healthcare institutions or nonprofit organizations.  Vendors or nonprofessionals will not be allowed.  

The cost of developing and maintaining PSOS.ORG has been underwritten with a grant from William Fletcher and small text-based page ads (see to the right).  The site will not include photo ads or blinking banners and ads will be relevant to those who use the site.
