The Patient Equipment Management Solutions (PEMS) team at Stanford Health Care and Lucile Packard Children's hospital is celebrating 584 injury free days today.

When I spoke to the team to learn more about their best practices, they mentioned communication, teamwork and staying focus on the job plays an important role in safety. Peter Stanislaw and Sergio Maldonado, PEMS Operation managers also encourage a safety culture among the team and provides safety trainings such as Sodexo 3 checks for Safety training during the daily huddle and monthly training.  

What is 3 Checks to Safety?

Before starting a job, stop and think:
1) Do you know how to do the job?

      2) Do you have the correct equipment?        
3) Is your environment safe?

    The message helps the team to always put safety first. To the PEMS team-  Thank you for your commitment to Safety! We appreciate all that you do!
