Joint Commission Alert: Effective Leadership Critical to Preventing Medical Errors
Joint Commission news, 08/28/09

The Joint Commission is advocating greater involvement of health care trustees, executives, and physician leaders, contending that the overall safety and effectiveness of a health care facility depends on administrative and clinical leaders who set the tone, create the culture and drive improvements.
