Safety

Clarinda Regional Health Center staff have been at the forefront of efforts to identify and address the various threats to safety in a hospital setting. All staff and employees at CRHC are now, more than ever, focused on making our patients’ hospital experience free from harm.


We have multiple ongoing efforts to improve safety in our facility, such as: 


►     Fall Prevention Committee

►     HIS (HIPPA Infection Prevention Safety) Rounds

►     Safety Drills

     In person and online staff education

►     Occurrence follow-ups

►     Process Evaluations


It is the goal of Clarinda Regional Health Center to reduce medical errors and to prevent harm to our patients. CRHC has a safety program that is aggressive and proactive. We continuously look for ways to make our patients and our environment safer. We also learn from the experiences of other hospitals, and from “good catches”, sometimes called “close calls”, to improve the safety of every process at CRHC. If you have any questions, comments, or safety concerns, please contact Lisa Haffner at 712-542-8232.
