Our Products:   The CARE program contains two products for analyzing the quality of health care that were designed and built by programmers at Social and Scientific Systems (SSS) and continually improved upon by the input from numerous hospital participants. CARE2 is an online product focused on analyzing and improving outcomes that contains fourteen basic performance indicators built from hospital discharge data.

Patient safety is a focus of legislation, consumers, and providers.  The Joint Commission (TJC) requires an assessment of the culture of patient safety.  Leaders must regularly evaluate the culture of safety and quality using valid and reliable tools and then prioritize and implement changes identified by the evaluation.  The Culture of Patient Safety (CoPS) module of  is a valid and reliable tool that can help you meet these Joint Commission requirements.
