Accidental Exposures Call for Swift Action

“Mine was a freak accident that could happen to anyone.” Humbling words from a distinguished researcher whose resume boasts three patents, the directorship of two prominent URMC centers (the James P. Wilmot Cancer Center, and the Center on Aging), more than 100 scientific articles and three books.

Striving to be Ever Better

We refuse to settle.

As a medical center, no work is more important to us than earning the trust of our patients, their families, and the providers who refer them to us. Here, we chronicle our relentless pursuit of improvement: safer medicine, higher-quality care, and the best possible experience.

Ever Better is always on the lookout for story possibilities. Please send us your improvement, safety, and quality-related suggestion, and we'll be happy to consider them.
