Arbor Springs Health and Rehab Center in Opelika has earned Gold Team status by the Patient Safety and Clinical Pharmacy Services Collaborative (PSPC).

PSPC is a breakthrough effort to improve the quality of health care across America by integrating evidence-based clinical pharmacy services into the care and management of high-risk, high-cost, complex patients. Through an intensive series of Learning Sessions and Action Periods, PSPC teams learn, implement and refine the leading practices that have been found to significantly improve health outcomes and patient safety through the integration of clinical pharmacy services.

Arbor Springs is partnering with the Alabama Quality Assurance Foundation (AQAF), Alabama’s Quality Improvement Organization, on the PSPC project. For more information, please visit www.aqaf.com.
