In 2025, the patient safety landscape shifted dramatically. CMS launched the Patient Safety Structural Measure – the most significant federal accountability mechanism in years. The Joint Commission announced Accreditation 360, its biggest overhaul since 1965. AI adoption hit an inflection point with 71% of hospitals now using predictive AI. And with 43% of physicians reporting burnout, the pressure to work smarter has never been more urgent.

This isn't business as usual. 2026 brings public PSSM scores on Care Compare, new Joint Commission performance goals, and very real workforce challenges. The organizations that thrive will be those who prepared – and those who didn't will be playing catch-up in public view.

We'll look back at 2025 to see what shaped the patient safety landscape, then identify the five critical focus areas that will make or break your patient safety goals this year. This webinar cuts through the noise to give you exactly what you need: clear priorities, proven strategies, and actionable steps to position your organization for success.

You'll discover how to close your PSSM gaps before the April submission deadline, what Joint Commission's shift to National Performance Goals means for your compliance approach, where AI is genuinely transforming safety outcomes, and how leading organizations are tackling workforce burnout while improving patient safety.
