Value in Inpatient Pediatrics Network

I am a pulmonologist and hospitalist very interested in quality improvement and patient safety. I have previously been involved in iimproving safety of flexible bronchoscopy, improving quality of cystic fibrosis care, and improving quality of inpatient asthma care. I am a member of the Pulmonology Section, Hospital Medicine Group, Quality and Patient Safety Group(s) and Patient Safety Officer at Arkansas Children's Hospital. My current efforts are focused on moving the impetus for imrpoving patient safety from hospital administration to frontline staff and training pediatric residents to be leaders in patient safety initiatives.
