Alicia Cole Biography
Alicia Cole, a survivor of severe hospital-acquired infections, has channeled her experiences into advocacy for patient safety. Her journey in patient advocacy began in 2006 when her mother noticed a black dot above the former actress’ surgical incision following routine fibroid removal surgery. It was the first sign of Necrotizing Fasciitis and the beginning of a two-month fight to survive hospital-acquired MRSA, VRE, Sepsis, and Pseudomonas. In 2008, she co-founded the Alliance for Safety Awareness for Patients (ASAP), an organization dedicated to education and awareness. Her efforts culminated in passing California Senate Bill 158, requiring hospitals to maintain sanitary environments and publicly report infection rates.
Cole's contributions extend to national platforms, including collaborations with the Consumers Union Safe Patient Project and lobbying on Capitol Hill. She has presented at the CMS QualityNet Conference and was part of the inaugural class of patient advocates at the IHI National Quality Forum. Her continuous educational pursuits include a graduate certificate in Healthcare Management & Leadership from UCLA, where she consulted on developing the institution's Patient Advocate Program. Her efforts in the field of patient safety were recognized by President Barack Obama, and she served as a Voting Member on the Presidential Advisory Council for Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria (PACCARB) from 2015 until February 2020.
Cole serves on the board of the Patient Safety Movement Foundation and the Environmental Services Optimization Playbook Project (ESOP) Advisory Council. She has served on various committees and advisory groups, including the state HAI Advisory Committee, the Education and Public Reporting Subcommittee, and the State of Wyoming HAI Advisory Group. Cole is a member of the Patient Safety Action Network (PSAN) and the Society for Participatory Medicine and was listed among the “Nation’s Best-Practices in Patient and Family Engagement” by the Caregiver Action Network. Her story and advocacy work have been featured on national media platforms, including ABC’s "20/20," "The Doctors," "The Dr. Nandi Show," and in publications such as USA Today, HEALTH Magazine, and Consumer Reports.
