Why attend Innovating Patient Safety?
Patient harm is estimated to be the 14th leading cause of the global disease burden, comparable to tuberculosis and malaria, and is a serious global public health concern.
Ensuring the safety of a patient has fast become a critical policy issue for the government and there has never been a more appropriate time to accelerate change in the healthcare sector.
This highly practical event will analyse key government initiatives and provide timely policy updates as well as practical solutions to support healthcare professionals in facing the challenges ahead.
