Methodist Women's Hospital's Danielle Frederick Honored With Good Catch Award

The Good Catch Award is designed to recognize staff members committed to patient safety.

This recognition is presented regularly and goes to the department in which the good catch occurred. Nominations for the award are taken from reported variances where a near miss is caught. Those variances are flagged for consideration of this award. A near miss is an incident or event that has occurred and had the potential to cause harm but was caught before it reached the patient.

"Danielle identified that a patient’s newborn screen was drawn by lab prior to the 24 hours of age. Danielle caught the error and facilitated getting an additional newborn screen drawn after 24 hours of age and prior to being discharged. Thank you, Danielle, for keeping our littlest patient’s safe!"

Congratulations, Danielle. Thank you for your commitment to keeping our patients and staff safe!
