You said

In Metro North, we’re committed to making sure that the people who use our services are safe and feel safe.  We’re also striving to continuously improve the quality of the services we provide.  Achieving this means having a culture that is focused on patient safety and quality improvement.

We recognise that for patients and consumers to have the best outcomes from their healthcare, they need to be at the centre of all that we do - from the way we communicate, plan and provide care, to the ways we design systems of care that keep patients and staff safe.

Patients are also our focus as we assess the safety and quality of the care we provide and research new and better ways of caring.
