From NJ Spotlight, August 31, 2015
Washing hands. Giving patients the right medication. Having enough qualified nurses.
Those are among the basics steps that hospitals and their workers can take to ensure that patients are as safe as possible. They’re also areas in which some New Jersey hospitals have room to improve, according to conclusions drawn from data collected by the Leapfrog Group, a Washington, D.C., -based nonprofit dedicated to improving healthcare quality.
The organization scored hospitals in eight areas it described as “steps to avoid harm.” Those scores were then combined into an overall rating of 1 (the lowest) to 4 (the highest).
