Quality

The Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) calls its patient-centered philosophy of critical care delivery Right Care, Right Now™. The idea is that patients get the care they need from a trained, integrated team of critical care experts directed by a trained and present physician who is credentialed in critical care medicine. Members of the multiprofessional team, work together to deliver appropriate care without delay.

This web page was developed as a quality/patient safety resource for everyone in the critical care profession. Here you can find safety tips, articles regarding information on the team model and improved quality care, and success stories of how others have been able to improve patient safety in their organizations.
