We are looking for HAB hospitals with good overall performance. Provide an introductory paragraph
with information on the hospital. This should describe organizational goals in relation to a culture of
excellence, Safety Across the Board/Harm Across the Board and why it is important to focus on
SAB/HAB.
We want to know how hospitals are reporting harm to catch hazards and improve patient care safety!
This could be through overall good performance in multiple areas of success or could focus on one
innovation in one top area of success. Stories should be data driven performance stories.
Data Driven Measures:
 Identify outcome measures showing zero outcome rates in any of the core focus areas.
 Identify high performance areas meeting benchmarks set for associated key metrics.
 Identify continued efforts in the reduction of SAB/HAB
Provide Run Charts with data measures which identify Core Focus Measures showing
progress. Examples are provided below.
Key Contacts:
Identify key hospital personnel who other HEN and Hospital leaders can contact to discuss Hospital
Engagement Network performance and participation.
