Florida's Patient Safety Culture Survey: Ensuring Quality Care with J.L. Morgan and Associates!

The Importance of Patient Safety

Patient safety is paramount in Florida's healthcare system. To ensure a high standard of care, the state mandates all hospitals and Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs) to participate in the Patient Safety Culture Survey (PSCS) every two years.


What is the PSCS?

The PSCS is a confidential, web-based survey that gathers feedback from healthcare staff members.  The survey focuses on their perceptions of safety practices, communication, and leadership within their facility.


Benefits of Participating in the PSCS

The PSCS offers valuable insights for healthcare organizations. By understanding staff perspectives, facilities can identify areas for improvement and develop targeted plans to:

  • Strengthen safety protocols

  • Enhance communication channels

  • Foster a culture of patient-centered care
