Stormont Vail Recognized for Team Safety Culture

The efforts by the Stormont Vail team to grow in its safety culture was highlighted in a recent Mayo Clinic Care Network News article. The article shares information about the Steps for Safety program, which included an escape room educational experience for team members to solve safety challenges. Complementing the effort has been quarterly leadership listening and engagement rounding sessions across the system to connect and reinforce the safety culture.

Annual Celebration of Life to Celebrate Donors & New Beginnings

Our annual Celebration of Life offers a space for family and friends to share stories and honor those who have inspired new beginnings through the gift of life. With nearly 100,000 people in the U.S. waiting for a transplant, this gathering is an important initiative to promote discussions about organ donation and to encourage more individuals to become organ donors.

Visit our Community Calendar for event details.
