The Patient Safety Rights Charter, endorsed globally and launched by the World Health Organization (WHO) in September 2023, is a foundational document aimed at establishing key patient rights to ensure safe healthcare worldwide. Designed to align with the Global Patient Safety Action Plan 2021–2030, this Charter emphasizes eliminating preventable harm in healthcare and safeguards patient rights to timely, effective, and respectful care. Grounded in international human rights standards, it affirms that safe and high-quality healthcare should be accessible to everyone, everywhere, underscoring the need for patient engagement, informed decision-making, and fair treatment across all healthcare settings.
To highlight the importance of the Patient Safety rights Charter, WPA is organising a Webinar on the Patient Safety Rights Charter.
