Welcome to spring! It feels amazing outside and the sun is shining. Your leadership team hopes you enjoyed this week’s celebration marking three years without a CLABSI or CAUTI. Your hard work is appreciated, and we want to thank you for keeping our patients safe. Please review UKG this week to familiarize yourself with the features and if you haven’t completed your ULearns, please do. You need to know how to ask for time off! March will be here soon, and we look forward to seeing you at Patient Safety Week.
