We connected with Dr. Diane Perez for Hispanic Heritage Month. Dr. Perez is an internationally recognized physician, medical journalist, author, and news anchor. She created, produces, and hosts "Cuide su Salud" ("Take Care of Your Health"). Her medical programs air on TelevisaUnivision and associated networks around the world. We asked Dr. Perez the three questions below, which she answered in both Spanish and English.

1. What is the one thing every hospital should do today to eliminate patient harm?
2. What can clinicians do to increase trust in the Hispanic community?
3. Why do you think we need to make reaching zero preventable harm a priority?
