World Patient Safety Day is a great idea to engage people to think about and act on patient safety.
Many people will be doing things on the ground to mark the day, making people aware of patient safety and perhaps, taking actions to make things better. Danielle's idea is a great example.
Patient Safety Learning's recent report, A Blueprint for Action (www.patientsafetylearning.org/resources/blueprint), identified six foundations of patient safety and the action we will take or instigate to address them.
We propose to mark World Patient Safety Day by building on this work. We will launch the first of a programme of short videos to introduce people to the foundations of patient safety and the action we propose to address them. We will add to these videos through the coming months until we have addressed all the foundations of patient safety.
In addition to generating interest on the day, we hope these videos will be of use to anyone trying to talk to colleagues or others about patient safety as a systemic issue that requires action.
We hope you enjoy them and - more importantly - that you find them useful in helping move the patient safety conversation forward.
