National Patient Safety Awareness Week invites us to reflect on how we protect and support everyone who walks through our doors. 🚪As we celebrate progress, we also look for new ways to reduce risk. ✅ Each day, we’re strengthening a culture built on accountability, trust and exceptional care—supporting better experiences and superior outcomes. ❤️

That means giving patients care in the setting that’s safest for them—whether that’s one of our nationally accredited outpatient surgery centers, or one of our trusted partner hospitals. 🏥

It means supporting safer procedures with technology like Mako SmartRobotics™, which has helped us replace more than 4,000 knee and hip joints more precisely. 🤖 It also means providing 24/7 postoperative support for those replacements, through a dedicated nurse practitioner patient navigator. 🌞 🧑🏼‍⚕️ 🌛

Besides being faster and more affordable than a hospital ER, our Walk-In Clinics offer safety benefits as well. 🚶 🚶‍♀️ 🚶‍♂️ Because our specialists focus only on orthopedic issues, you’re at less risk from catching viruses from other patients. 🙌

At CIO, patient safety awareness is more than a week in March. It’s a promise we live all day long—every day of the year. 💯
