  2. Click on the Research tab.
  3. Under Clinical Quality Ratings, click on all indicators listed to view ratings.

Examine the information in the safety report from the point of view of a patient. State how patient safety ratings would influence your choice of hospital. Which, for you, are the most critical indicators? Give reasons citing indicators and results for those chosen indicators. Write your analysis in one page.

For each indicator, include the following information:

Finally, explain how these indicators taken together cover all aspects of quality in the high-risk area.
