On April 22 we had a pipe elbow failure in our Emergency Department (ED) causing a significant water leak. Crews are working hard to repair damage as quickly as possible. Our ED is open, but several rooms are currently offline, which can increase wait times. Apologies for any inconvenience you may experience.
A Safety Event Debrief is a summary of a root cause analysis and actions put into place after a safety event at VMC. Sharing these lessons learned from safety events and the plan for improving our processes at a system level, rather than focusing on individual failures is an important part of being a high reliability organization and of reaching our goal of Zero Harm.
