Summary
In this video we hear from three people campaigning for patient safety improvements:
- Sandra Igwe – CEO of the Motherhood Group.
- Tim Edwards – campaigner for improvements in pulmonary embolism care and diagnosis.
- Soojin Jun – co-founder of Patients for Patient Safety US.
They talk about their experiences of engaging with the system, the challenges they have faced and offer advice for others seeking to campaign for change in healthcare.
The insights they share help evidence the need for healthcare organisations and frontline staff to work with patients, their families and campaigners in improving safety and reducing inequalities.
