A new video released by the Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality features clinicians’ explanations of how their institutions have utilized the agency’s Comprehensive Unit-based Safety Program (CUSP) toolkit to eliminate healthcare-associated infections.
AHRQ’s CUSP toolkit, which was created for clinicians by clinicians, helps doctors, nurses and other clinicians work together to successfully identify and solve issues that threaten the safety of patients. The customizable toolkit focuses on best practices with consideration of the science of safety, improved safety culture and an increased emphasis on teamwork.
The CUSP toolkit is available for free on the AHRQ website. To learn more about CUSP, click here to watch AHRQ’s three-minute video overview of the program.
