This year, healthcare professionals are focused on patient and staff safety, a recent Becker's poll found.
The poll, posted in mid-January, asked participants to vote on which measures their organizations are most focused on improving this year.
Of 287 respondents, 53% identified patient and staff safety as their top goal, while 20% are focusing most on hospital acquired infections, 18% voted for wait times and 9% said "other."
Becker's has no insights on respondents' organizations or roles.
