Patient Safety Movement: the Lewis Blackman Leadership Award

In honor and recognition of the 20th anniversary of Lewis Blackman’s death on 6 November 2000, an award has been established with the goal of recognising outstanding leadership in patient safety by students pursuing a health profession and residents in training. Lewis Blackman was an outstanding student himself and because his mother, Helen Haskell, has dedicated her life to improving patient safety, especially through education, the Lewis Blackman Leadership Award has been created.

You can find all the details and nomination requirements here. Application submissions will be accepted starting 15 December 15 and will close on 31 January.
