Patient and Medication Safety

Patient Safety

Patient safety is a top priority at St. Luke's, and we have a number of processes in place in our clinics to ensure the safety and security of our patients.

  • Accreditation. Safety and quality of care are at the heart of high-quality institutions, and as an accredited hospital, St. Luke's has met the rigorous quality and safety requirements of our industry.
  • Board-Certified Physicians. St. Luke's physicians are board certified, meaning they have voluntarily gone through the board-certification process to demonstrate competency in their specialty.
  • Continuing Education. All St. Luke's health care professionals participate in continuing medical education to meet the standards of their specialty.
