TEDxCentraCare Safekeeping theme icon - a red outline of a square around a white circle

We asked ten clinician colleagues to share an idea that would rouse us beyond the usual thinking about safety and improvement — to keep safe our patients, our work, and ourselves.

In the spirit of TED and ideas worth sharing, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. TEDxCentraCare explored the future of safety from the perspectives of ten CentraCare clinician colleagues, including special guest, Andrew Olson, MD, from the University of Minnesota Medical School.
