Health department releases hospital errors since 2006

Posted on Monday, August 23rd, 2010 at 3:04 pm    

The Washington State Health Department has released a report on where and when hospital errors have occurred in the past four years.

It was released in raw data and separated into different categories such as wrong procedures being performed on people to foreign objects being left in the body.

The hospital that had the most errors was Harborview Medical Center with 124 adverse events since 2006. The University of Washington Medical Center was the second in line 0.29 errors per bed.

The procedures on how each hospitals reported errors and how they are analyzed is somewhat different so just looking at the number may not be the best way to view the report.
