To ensure the health and safety of our patients, clients and residents, Providence Care monitors and reports on infection rates. This is in keeping with provincially legislated requirements for hospitals to publicly report on a set of patient safety indicators.
Providence Care reports the rates and number of cases for:
Providence Care is not reporting on the Hospital Standardized Mortality Ratio, ventilator-associated pneumonia or central line infections, as these indicators do not apply to the patients or type of care provided.
The public can also access Providence Care’s Patient Safety Indicator data on the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care website.
