Registration is now open for 19th Annual Patient Safety Summit!

Registration is now open for the DFW Hospital Council Foundation’s 19th Annual Patient Safety Summit set for consecutive Thursdays on September 3, 10, 17 and 24. The virtual event will be from 10:00 a.m. to 12 noon, CDT each day.

This year’s summit, themed “Declaration of Patient Safety,” is designed to educate healthcare providers to include bedside care givers, quality directors, regulatory staff and risk management staff on best practices in patient safety and compliance.

The keynote speaker will be RaDonda Vaught, a former nurse who was the subject of one of the highest profile healthcare criminal cases in recent years. While working as a BSN prepared registered nurse in 2017, Vaught committed a medication error that ended the life of a patient.

She was charged by the Tennessee Department of Health, leading to the revocation of her nursing license. Additionally, she was charged under criminal law and found guilty of two felony charges.

Vaught, a passionate advocate for safety and improvement, will detail the impact this event has had on her life and career.
