Editorial: Fines to San Diego County Hospitals ‘Clarion Call’
A San Diego Union-Tribune editorial called it "dismaying" to learn that four of the nine hospitals cited last week by the Department of Public Health for the most serious kind of preventable errors are located in San Diego County. The editorial says the fines against the hospitals "must serve as a clarion call to the institutions involved."
