From Name: From Email: To Name: To Email: Optional Message: COA Endorsement of the CPSI Position Statement Supporting a Surgical Safety Checklist Led by the Canadian Patient Safety Institute (CPSI), the COA joins a chorus of health care voices in support of a call for Surgical Safety Checklists to be made a standard part of every surgical procedure performed in Canada. In addition to an updated CPSI Joint Position Statement in support of surgical safety checklists, numerous resources are available to health care providers, including the Surgical Safety Checklist, a detailed explanation of checklist items and a how-to guide for implementation. We encourage all COA members to familiarize themselves with these protocols and to consider local implementation as appropriate, as part of our ongoing commitment to high-quality and safe patient care. more 7701 Las Colinas Blvd., Ste. 800, Irving, TX 75063
