Quality and Patient Safety
Quality and Patient Safety
Our Vision — to be remembered by each patient as providing the care and compassion we want for our families and ourselves — is central to the premise that Palmetto Health's responsibility to each patient is to provide the highest standard of quality care possible, focusing on patient safety, striving to reduce patient errors, and using the highest level of evidence-based knowledge possible.
Patients and physicians can look to our performance data to see that the culture of quality being developed within Palmetto Health is showing strong results.
