Welcome to the hub.
the hub, an award-winning platform to share learning for patient safety

This year's campaign for World Health Day was 'Building a fairer, healthier world'. As COVID-19 has highlighted, some people are able to live healthier lives and have better access to health services than others - entirely due to the conditions in which they are born, grow, live, work and age. 

Making sure all patients can access and understand healthcare information is absolutely key to this. To support World Health Day, we interviewed anaesthetist Rachael Grimaldi who tells us about CardMedic, the organisation she founded to empower staff and patients to communicate across any barrier. Rachael explains how their tools can be used to support vulnerable groups and reduce inequalities.
