A Vision Born from Purpose
​
The Healthcare Equality Project, formerly known as The Long Island Patient Safety Advisory Council, was sparked by Pulse President Ilene Corina's participation in the National Patient Safety Foundation / American Hospital Association Patient Safety Leadership Training. Originating as her "Action Learning Project," this initiative aims to comprehend the challenges faced by healthcare system users in accessing safe, quality care. We acknowledge the support of The Long Island Unitarian Universalist Fund, Nassau Suffolk Hospital Council, and North Shore LIJ Health System in shaping this endeavor.
