About Patient Safety Learning 

Patient Safety Learning is a charity and independent voice for improving patient safety. The drive to create Patient Safety Learning was born from the frustration of seeing the same themes emerge time and time again in healthcare systems around the world.

There has been an increase in patient safety improvement projects in local organisations, but we need a more systematic approach to sharing knowledge and information about which patient safety initiatives and solutions work.

Patient Safety Learning harnesses the knowledge, enthusiasm and commitment of healthcare organisations, professionals and patients for system-wide change.

the hub: improving shared learning for patient safety 

the hub is an online platform for patient safety. Designed with input from patient safety professionals, clinicians and patients, we created the hub after identifying shared learning as one of the six evidence-based foundations of safer care. It offers a powerful combination of tools, resources, stories, case studies and good practice to anyone who wants to make care safer for patients. Its communities of interest give people a place to discuss patient safety concerns and how to address them. Watch our video to find out more.

We officially launched the hub on 2 October 2019 and, to date, we have had over 2 million visits and over 3.6 million page views.

Although we are delighted with the continued growth of the hub, we are most proud of the relationships that the hub is facilitating and the good work that’s happening as a result.
