Safety Goals

With hundreds of patients entrusted to our care each week, we know there is no responsibility more serious than patient safety.

Every day, it’s the focus of individuals who provide care here. And together as team throughout Sacred Heart Hospital, we share an ongoing commitment to improving care to make your stay as safe as possible.

It’s why we have carefully implemented The Joint Commission’s annual National Patient Safety Goals throughout the hospital. Learn about our accreditation and Gold Seal of Approval.
