Provider Safety Checklist

ISOBS has developed a template for a safety checklist to be used in an office-based setting where procedures are being performed, based on the work of the World Health Organization (W.H.O.) and Ariadne Labs. This template can be customized to meet the needs of the specific subspecialty and office setting, and it has already been adapted by many healthcare providers and featured by several professional organizations such as the IHI, AORN, and APSF.
