Patient and Family Advisory Councils
Patient and Family Advisory Councils or (PFACs)
PFACs serve a critical role in addressing the safety and quality of healthcare delivered in hospitals and health systems. They exist in institutions around the country and in some cases, multiple PFACs work within a given hospital or health system, each focused on a different population or set of issues.
PFACs are key contributors of diagnostic quality and safety regulations, and provide best and promising practices to the health care industry.
