Toshiba, AHRA open Putting Patients First grant program

The AHRA and Toshiba Medical are now accepting applications for the 10th year of their Putting Patients First grant program.

The grants, which are funded by an unrestricted educational grant from Toshiba, are designed to help healthcare facilities fund programs, training, or seminars aimed at improving patient care and safety and customizing treatment in CT, MR, ultrasound, x-ray, and vascular imaging, according to the vendor. Six grants of up to $7,500 each will be awarded to hospitals and imaging centers, along with an additional grant of up to $20,000 for an integrated delivery network (IDN).

Three of the $7,500 grants will be awarded for projects that improve pediatric imaging, while the other three will be given for initiatives aimed at improving overall patient care and safety in imaging. The additional grant of up to $20,000 will be presented to an IDN or hospital system for projects that improve overall patient care and safety in imaging across the IDN or hospital system, Toshiba said. All winning facilities will be expected to develop and share their best practices.

Applications can be submitted on the AHRA's website until October 30. The AHRA will select the winners, which will be announced at the RSNA annual meeting in December.
