The Plan of Safe Care Community of Practice is a monthly meeting occurring on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 2 to 3 p.m. The goal of this meeting is to facilitate a space for networking, relevant training topics, presentations, and discussions for the community of professionals involved in the Plan of Safe Care body of work.

These meetings will also provide opportunities for monthly updates on implementation, hospital engagement, and data related to the Plan of Safe Care and aligned initiatives. All meetings are held virtually via Zoom. Community of Practice meetings are currently scheduled through February 2025. Register here.
