Patient Safety Fair at Sinai on March 8


Sinai Hospital is proud to sponsor the Annual Patient Safety Fair from noon to 4 p.m. on Tuesday, March 8. This fair shows how different products are used at Sinai, encouraging safer care for every patient, every day.

Products on display will include the VersaCare bed, which helps prevent pressure ulcers. Reducing these ulcers, also known as bed sores, has been a high priority for LifeBridge Health facilities. Both Levindale and Northwest offer wound care.

"It is of paramount importance to Sinai to engage staff and others as we strengthen collaboration and commit to safe health care for all," says Sinai patient safety officer Tina Gionet, RN, MS.

Everyone is invited to attend the fair, from staff to patients. Sponsors will receive lunch and attendees will receive refreshments. There will be a raffle for gift cards and giveaways.
