The Vanderbilt Health Center for Patient and Professional Advocacy (CPPA), provides services, education and research that support the pursuit of professionalism and high reliability for medical centers and health systems worldwide.

Our programs, PARS® ( (Patient Advocacy Reporting System) and CORSsm ( (Coworker Observation Reporting System), use the observations and experiences of patients, families and fellow medical team members to create local and national data and discipline-specific benchmarks to identify, address and support the small group of physicians, advanced practice professionals, nurses, physician assistants and academic/research faculty who model disrespect towards patients, colleagues and trainees.

Their patients are at elevated risk for experience avoidable medical and surgical complications.
