62 Hospitals Participating in Colorado 100k Lives Campaign

100k Lives Campaign Logo - The Colorado TrustNearly 90% of Colorado's acute care hospitals have signed up to participate in the Trust-sponsored Colorado 100k Lives Campaign. This statewide effort is focused on helping hospitals further strengthen their quality improvement systems to ensure safe patient care.

The Colorado campaign is based on the Institute for Healthcare Improvement's (IHI) national 100k Lives Campaign, an effort to save 100,000 lives across the U.S. over an 18-month period, and every year thereafter, through such evidence-based interventions as rapid response at the first sign of patient decline, making certain that patients receive the right medications at every transfer point in care, and adherence to best practices known to prevent heart attacks, infections and ventilator-associated pneumonia.
