When clinicians worry about their safety, the impact reaches far beyond a single incident. Confidence drops, reporting suffers, turnover rises and operational strain spreads across the organization.

This healthcare safety report shows why best-in-class hospitals are treating safety as a strategic priority. It connects worker safety to workforce retention, trust and operational performance, giving leaders a clearer view of what is driving risk and what can improve outcomes. 

The findings are drawn from an online survey of 1,014 healthcare employees across clinical, operational and executive roles. The results are hard to ignore — Nearly 85% of survey respondents have personally experienced a safety incident during their careers. More than 20% (1 in 5) have been involved in incidents that escalated to physical violence, and 76% of healthcare workers consider personal safety a daily concern.

One system that adopted connected safety technology saw violent incidents decline by 30% within six months, while incident reporting increased by 50%.

For leaders focused on sustaining care delivery, this report offers a practical look at how proactive safety programs can support both staff protection and organizational performance.
