Safety 2025: Accelerate to Zero

Every year, thousands of patients die due to medical error, and assaults on caregivers are on the rise. The estimates vary, but one thing is certain: We can, and we must, do better.

Today is the day we disrupt the industry and we take a stand. Today, we ask you to join us in accelerating the industry to zero harm.

Safety 2025 is our bold, landmark initiative, focused on reducing industry-wide safety events by 80% over the next five years.

Through this program, Press Ganey will partner with clients who commit to the goal of zero harm. And we will invest in their success by providing the tools, the platform, and the insights at no cost to support their efforts.

As industry leaders, we have a moral imperative to protect our patients and our caregivers. We must make improving safety across the industry a top priority.

We must come together. Act now. And accelerate our efforts to reduce preventable harm. Together, we can do it.

We've seen organizations achieve as much as an 80% reduction in serious safety events. Individual systems can achieve these results. Why can't our entire industry do the same?

Our executive leadership team, more than 1,400 associates across the company, and I are committed to leading the industry to zero harm.

I'm committed. For the people you care for. For patients. For your colleagues. For the people you love. I'm committed to leading the industry to zero harm. Are you with us?
