Chris Holman speaks with Phyllis McLellan, Patient Safety Specialist, Sparrow Hospital, Lansing, MI about Sparrow celebrating Patient Safety Awareness Week, which is March 11-15. 
Their discussion covered finding out what Sparrow is doing during the upcoming week to raise awareness about Patient safety? What some of Sparrow’s ongoing safety initiatives are? Along with how people can find out more?

Phyllis shares with Chris;

• Sparrow is always working to empower our Caregivers to speak up about safety 
  risks and potential harm to patients. We are holding special quizzes for Caregivers 
  on Patient safety and highlighting this very important issue.
• We have implemented numerous safety measures, such as a hand hygiene 
  program, a daily safety check among top leaders, and a quarterly Speak Up 
  award to recognize Caregivers who have reported potential harmful practices.

• They can email any questions or comments about patient safety 
  to sparrowpatientsafety@sparrow.org.
