About the Patient Safety and Quality of Care Improvements Session
Patient safety is a health-care discipline that arose in response to the increasing complexity of health-care systems and the associated increase in patient harm in hospitals. Its goal is to prevent and minimize risks, errors, and harm to patients while providing health care. Delivering high-quality essential health services necessitates patient safety.
The goal of quality improvement is to increase safety, effectiveness, and efficiency. As a result, revamping the healthcare system necessitates the use of specialist methodologies and instruments that have been proven to aid in development. A systematic method by a healthcare institution to monitor, measure, and enhance the standards of excellent healthcare is referred to as quality improvement in healthcare.
