The annual Culture of Safety Survey was open from April 16 to May 7, 2021. The Culture of Safety Survey provides feedback on YKHC’s communication, teamwork, patient safety, leadership, and staff engagement. The anonymous results of the survey were shared with the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) on May 17 and will be shared during this month’s Quality Assessments/Performance Improvement (QAPI) meeting. Department specific results will then be shared with employees by their leaders.
We received a total of 398 responses, with 251 raffle entries for free swag! All raffle entries were placed in an on-line randomization program.
Congratulations to the following employees who were selected by that program as winners in the 2021 Culture of Safety Survey $25 Amazon Gift Card Raffle:

- Raise staff awareness about patient safety.
- Assess the current status of patient safety culture at YKHC.
- Identify strengths and areas for patient safety culture improvement.
- Examine trends in patient safety culture change over time.
- Evaluate the cultural impact of patient safety initiatives and interventions.
