Canadian Patient Safety Week 2025 Communications Guide: Share, Engage, Connect

October 27-31, 2025

Organized by Healthcare Excellence Canada, Canadian Patient Safety Week (CPSW) is an annual campaign that brings people together around a shared goal: making healthcare safer for everyone. This year’s theme, All Voices for Safer Care, emphasizes the need to listen, reflect and act — together. By making space for all voices, we can strengthen safety, build trust and drive meaningful change.

We’ve created this toolkit to help you showcase your local CPSW events, to help us spread the word about CPSW and to encourage people to participate. Sharing about CPSW on social media, by email or on your website (like your events page, if you have one) are all great options.
