Very Important Information Regarding Hospital Care!

The government recently released its annual report on the quality of health care Americans receive and while there have been some improvements, the news was not positive: hospitals still have work to do to put an end to the ongoing, but very solvable, problem of patients acquiring life-threatening infections in hospitals.

To help achieve that, Kimblery-Clark Healthcare has put together a website called "Not on My Watch" at www.haiwatch.com to educate patients and health care professionals. Their goal is to eliminate these preventable illnesses and their often tragic consequences.

I thought that you and the readers of Reaching Out Online would care about this issue and I was hoping you could post some information spread the word about protecting patients from preventable hospital infections. I've created a useful site that you're welcome to check out and grab resources from:
