Why Patient Safety Week? The World Health Organization estimates that 40% of patients experience harm in ambulatory care settings, and 80% of this harm could be prevented. IHI notes that 400,000 deaths occur in the United States each year because of errors or preventable harm. Patient Safety Week seeks to grow awareness about patient safety, acknowledge the hard work of health professionals who ensure safety (each of YOU), and further the work to improve safe, effective, efficient, equitable, and patient-centered care. By the end of this week, we hope you learn more about and play a role in health care safety for patients and the workforce.
Have you noticed someone who promotes safe and equitable care at HCH? Shine a light on their efforts by filling out a very simple nomination form by Friday, 3/17 at noon.
