Since August of 2015, they\u2019ve helped make the Cooper website, Quality and Safety page, and Patient Information Guide more user-friendly. Council members suggested coordinating the colors on the elevators with our visitor passes to make it easier for families to visit. The council is also responsible for the new signage in the parking garage as well as new signs with important valet information. Together, they help Cooper\u2019s leadership to understand and improve any aspect of care, safety, service excellence, program development, communications, facility design, and patient and family education that may need attention.<\/p>\n<p>The Cooper Patient and Family Advisory Council meets once a month on the third Thursday of each month, and we are looking for new members who can commit for at least one year.
