SAFER-9 Clinician Communication

A Resource Developed by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology

The Clinician Communication SAFER Guide identifies recommended safety practices associated with communication between clinicians and is intended to optimize the safety and safe use of EHRs. Processes relating to clinician communication are complex and vulnerable to breakdown.

In the EHR-enabled healthcare environment, providers rely on technology to support and manage their complex inter-clinician communication processes. If implemented and used correctly, EHRs have potential to improve the safety and safe use of clinician communication.
