Summary
The Inaugural Australian Patients for Patient Safety Workshop, held over 3 days in Perth from July 7 ‐9, 2009, brought together a group of 40 health consumers, many of whom had experienced medical error or health system failure, health providers and health policy makers from around Australia.
Participants were selected for their efforts as change agents who have worked proactively to improve the safety of health care in Australia and their desire to further improve safety in health care, in partnership. Participants came together to build trust, functional working relationships grounded in mutual respect and appreciation of what each brought to the field of patient safety and to form strategies and action plans for improving patient safety in Australia.
The core of those strategies and action plans is the Perth Declaration for Patient Safety.
