Measuring to Achieve Patient Safety (MAPS) Volunteer Program

Measuring to Achieve Patient Safety (MAPS) is part of UCLA Health's continual effort to enhance quality of patient care and improve patient safety. Our volunteers conduct observations to document care team adherence to safety protocols.  

MAPS is comprised of two programs, MAPS General Volunteering and Fall Ambassador Volunteering. General Volunteers observe infection prevention measures, such as hand washing and use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). Fall Ambassador Volunteers work closely with nursing staff to observe fall and injury prevention safeguards.
