Canadian Patient Safety Week 2022
Thank you to everyone who participated in Canadian Patient Safety Week from October 24-28, 2022. The theme was “Press Play on Safety Conversations” focusing on safer care of older adults through safety conversations and actions. When we have safety conversations, it changes the way we think about safety. Ask questions, listen and act.
Let’s keep the Momentum Going
Our efforts won’t end now that the week has come to a close. When healthcare workers, patients, residents, clients and caregivers prioritize talking about safety and acting on the insights, outcomes and experiences can improve for everyone. That’s why we’re sustaining our Press Play on Safety Conversations campaign beyond Canadian Patient Safety Week. Please continue to participate and engage with the campaign using #SafetyConversations, and continue to use our curated list of quality and safety tools and resources to help you make care safer for older adults.
