Becker's Healthcare January 22, 2025
UChicago Medicine is one of 12 hospitals in the nation with a 26-year, Leapfrog straight-“A” streak and Stephen Weber, MD, said the secret is to never be satisfied.
“Whether I’m seeing patients or working in my administrative role, we constantly identify opportunities to provide safer care,” Dr. Weber, chief medical officer and executive vice president for clinical effectiveness at UChicago, told Becker’s. “While we are recognized as one of the safest hospitals in the country, we remind ourselves that hospitals remain inherently risky places. Our mindset is one of intolerance toward potential risks and maintaining not just vigilance, but a certain level of dissatisfaction with our current performance, is crucial — even when we are performing at the highest levels.”
