MHA Keystone Center Safety & Quality Symposium 2026

The event took place at DoubleTree by Hilton Lansing in Lansing, Michigan.

The symposium was designed for chief medical and nursing officers and leaders across safety, quality, risk management, and clinical improvement.

The symposium was approved for AMA PRA Category 1 Credits and ANCC contact hours.

Yes, the exhibit hall was scheduled to be open all day with designated times for attendees to gain insights from exhibitors about products and services.

Hospital leaders and clinicians at state association symposiums usually wear business casual to business professional attire, such as a blazer or suit without a tie. A hotel conference room in Lansing in October can run cool, so a layer is practical.

It was most useful for Michigan hospital safety, quality and risk leaders and chief medical and nursing officers, since the speakers were scheduled to come from Michigan Medicine, Henry Ford Health and Munson Healthcare and the sessions were scheduled to cover security, resilience and clinician well-being. The one-day format with AMA PRA Category 1 Credits and ANCC contact hours suited clinicians who needed credit without a long trip; those outside Michigan or in non-clinical roles would have found less that applied to them.

The symposium was billed as focusing on advancing patient safety, improving care quality, and sharing innovative strategies for better health outcomes.
