What is Patient Safety?

Patient safety has become an increasingly important concern as healthcare delivery becomes more specialized and complex. The provision of healthcare requires seamless coordination among healthcare teams, and when communication breaks down, medical harm can occur. Many safety protocols in healthcare systems may fail to function as intended, leading to avoidable harm to patients. It is now widely acknowledged that patients themselves can play a significant role in minimizing such harm.

What is the Patients for Patient Safety Foundation?

The Patients for Patient Safety Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to:

• Raising awareness about best medical practices among the general public,
• Sharing valuable patient insights with healthcare professionals, and
• Encouraging patients, including their families, to actively engage in their own medical care.
