The MPSC offers an annual organizational membership plan to encourage safety-mindedness among your entire team by breaking down the barriers to individual registration. We offer member-exclusive events, as well as FREE or reduced member registration fees for all courses in our catalogue.  

This fiscal year, we are excited to announce an expanded lineup of courses and member benefits. We will continue to hold monthly patient safety forums, providing a community for quality and safety champions to network and learn from one another. Using state and national patient safety priorities to guide planning, we have expanded our catalogue of offerings for healthcare organizations. MPSC will:

• Hold monthly webinars on timely and compelling topics aimed at driving critical improvements in patient safety.
• Host courses designed to develop the skills necessary to lead patient safety and quality improvement at the system, organizational, and unit level.
• Provide year-round opportunities for members to network, collaborate, and innovate to solve problems, learn from each other, and overcome barriers to improvement in each of the programmatic areas.
• Facilitate protected communities and safe spaces which foster shared learning so that healthcare organizations and providers can avoid duplication of known patient safety hazards across the region and beyond. 

We now support a wider variety of service lines and clinical staff for MPSC members through: 

• Foundational courses in patient safety and quality to increase your workforce’s capacity. This includes patient safety tools like Root Cause Analyses and Failure Modes and Effect Analysis, plus monthly forums on clinical areas identified as priority patient safety areas.
• Support for patient safety in the Emergency Department. While you are working on throughput and new reporting requirements, we will help you to reduce that harms that are occurring as a result of overcrowding and boarding.
• Increased perinatal patient safety programming.  We have expanded our work to help you with state and national goals to reduce severe maternal morbidity and mortality, stillbirth, and racial disparities in pregnancy-related outcomes. We will also offer a year-long fellowship in perinatal safety for minimal cost to member organizations. 
• A health system wide focus on medication safety. This includes help for pharmacists, medication safety leaders, and clinical staff by identifying innovative strategies to create reliable systems for safe medication use throughout the organization. We will hold our annual medication safety conference in a new virtual format, and we will also host a separate invitation-only in-person event for medication safety leaders at our member hospitals.
