HOLD THE DATE
For its fifth edition, after touring across Europe, the European Patient Safety Conference arrives in Brussels under the theme "Towards Safe and Resilient Healthcare Systems in Europe: From Strategy to Implementation".
Over the last few years, through conferences and numerous multi-stakeholder dialogues, a clear pattern has emerged: patient safety is shaped not only by clinical practice but by governance structures, workforce wellbeing, patient involvement, leadership culture, digital reliability, and the resilience of healthcare systems themselves. It is a shared responsibility, requiring collaborative efforts from healthcare professionals, hospital managers, patient organisations, policymakers, researchers, insurers, industry representatives, and patient safety experts.
Building on these insights, EUPSF and its affiliates deemed the time ripe to initiate the collaborative development of a European Strategy for Safe and Resilient Healthcare Systems, a framework moving beyond fragmented initiatives to address structural risk factors. Brussels, as the heart of European policy, seemed the natural place to present such an ambitious initiative.
However, this year's conference will go further and initiate the transition from strategy to implementation. Through structured panels, peer dialogue, and expert contributions, participants will review the strategy and explore how to translate it into concrete actions tailored to their specific environments, at institutional, national, and European levels.
