During my visit to Germfree in Ormond Beach Florida, a few weeks ago, where I was invited to speak at their all-employee meeting, I also had the chance to do an interview. In it, I shared the heartfelt reasons behind my deep commitment to the work I’ve pursued so diligently over the years.
It’s hard to believe how much time has passed since I first began this incredible journey, following the path I truly felt called to take. This month marks 15 years since I founded the Emily Jerry Foundation, with the core mission of improving medication safety and preventing errors like the one that tragically took my beautiful daughter Emily from happening to others—actively working to be part of the solution to preventable medical errors and ultimately saving countless lives.
After having had the opportunity to witness firsthand, the profound dedication and vision of the entire Germfree team in developing their new Smarthood system, I’m more confident than ever that we can continue to come together to improve medication safety in IV compounding for all patients. This is why I’m so excited about the future of the new partnership between Germfree and the Emily Jerry Foundation. Our organizations are perfectly aligned with our core missions as we carry forward our shared passion for saving lives—a passion that clearly drives us all!
The Emily Jerry Foundation is determined to help make our nation’s,
world renowned, medical facilities safer for everyone, beginning with
our babies and children. We are accomplishing this very important
objective by focusing on increasing public awareness of key patient
safety related issues and identifying technology and best practices that
are proven to minimize the “human error” component of medicine.
Through our ongoing efforts The Emily Jerry Foundation is working
hard to save lives every day.
