Metropolitan Hospital receives Patient Safety Seal 2025
The recognition takes into account the commitment of health units to the best practices of quality and safety in the care provided
The Metropolitan Emergency Hospital (HMUE), located in Ananindeua, Metropolitan Region of Belém, was recognized this Wednesday (26) with the Patient Safety Seal 2025, awarded by Epimed Solutions in partnership with the Brazilian Institute for Patient Safety (IBSP).
The certificate attests to the commitment of the public unit, which belongs to the health network of the government of Pará, to the best practices of quality and safety in health care.
To receive the seal, health institutions across Brazil must meet certain criteria, including a percentage of notifications classified as "Other nature" less than or equal to 25%; an average early detection time less than or equal to seven days; and an average investigation time less than or equal to 45 days.
“Meeting these requirements demands continuous work in monitoring, analysis, and process improvement. This means that every area of the hospital is committed to quickly identifying risk situations, investigating efficiently, and adopting measures that enhance the safety and quality of care provided to our patients,” says the quality manager of HMUE, Jéssica Pinho.

From Vila Canopus, in the rural area of Altamira, Xingu region, Geneci Moreira spent more than 40 days accompanying her son undergoing treatment at the Metropolitan and highlighted the quality of the care received. “We were very well treated from the beginning. The professionals welcomed us with respect and care, which made all the difference during this difficult time,” she stated.
The Patient Safety Seal is an important indicator of compliance with quality standards, which can be used by the hospital in promotional materials and institutional communication.
“The recognition reinforces the commitment of everyone at HMUE to provide safe care, based on rigorous protocols and patient-centered care. It is an incentive for us to continue improving our processes and ensuring excellence in every service provided,” emphasizes the physician and technical director of the Metropolitan, César Passanezi.
