Patient Safety

We’ve put many safety measures in place to reduce falls, allergic reactions, infections, equipment malfunctions, and medication errors. Still, there are some risks possible with any visit to a hospital. We believe that when patients and hospitals work together, we can lower the risk of accidents and improve the safety for all involved.

KJZZ-91.5 FM Radio: Dr. Amy Overlin with Tempe St. Luke’s Hospital Interviewed About Concussions

Keishaud White, No. 5 on the Desert Vista High School Thunder football team, kneels at the southeast corner of the field before the first game of his senior year.

He’s praying — and in the audience, so is his mom, Keisha Culver.

“I just keep it in my prayer that he comes off the field the same way he went on and that’s unscathed, unharmed,” she said.

This is also Keishaud’s first game back after tearing his meniscus last season.

Minutes later, she lets out a cheer.
