Bio
The Center for Healthcare Engineering & Patient Safety (CHEPS) facilitates the use of systems-based engineering techniques in healthcare. We work to break down barriers of language, culture, and siloing between engineering and healthcare by teaching engineers how to work effectively in healthcare and healthcare providers to have engineering literacy. In doing so we can utilize established engineering techniques to address operational problems in healthcare delivery; we also facilitate the development of new tools and techniques to address healthcare-specific problems and conduct new research when needed. We aim to broadly disseminate the tools, techniques, and training models that we have developed.
