Improve safety outcomes and collaborate with peer hospitals in a federally protected environment.

The Child Health Patient Safety Organization® is a federally protected network of children’s hospitals working together to make health care safer for kids.

As the only PSO in the U.S. focused solely on children, we’ve spent nearly two decades helping pediatric hospitals transform individual safety events into collective progress.

Within our confidential environment, members share real cases, surface emerging risks, and build safer systems of care.

The power of a PSO

Unlike traditional safety collaboratives, PSOs allow hospitals to submit and discuss detailed safety cases under federal confidentiality and privilege protections, grounding solutions in the realities and complexities of patient care.

“The PSO is a powerful resource for improving safety culture and driving meaningful change.”

Within this unique environment, we combine comprehensive case analysis and candid shared learning to deliver insights and improvements that hospitals can’t gain in isolation.

As a result, our members see measurable reductions in serious safety events year after year.
