DuPont Sustainable Solutions has expanded its consulting business to help healthcare entities address patient and staff injuries, as well as errors and incidents.

DSS said it has completed initial pilots with healthcare facilities in the United States and Australia. DuPont is a member of the National Patient Safety Foundation and is working with other companies in the Patient Safety Coalition.

“The healthcare industry has more staff injuries than mining and construction,” noted Mark Wagner, regional president of North America for DSS.
