We proudly celebrate Tyler Silvey, RN, a Josie King Patient Safety Award recipient at the University of Maryland St. Joseph Medical Center. Tyler was recognized twice for his crucial interventions. First, he swiftly managed a bleeding wound during a routine check, a move that was vital to saving a patient's life. In another instance, he was praised by a physician for his vigilance and timely care for a complex patient, overcoming significant delays. Tyler's proactive approach exemplifies our High-Reliability Organization principles, focusing on preventing harm and ensuring the safety of our patients and colleagues. His actions testify to every team member's critical role in our health care system. Thank you, Tyler, for your unwavering commitment to safety and care!
