#WHOEMRO | World Patient Safety Day 2023: “Engaging patients for patient safety”

World Patient Safety Day not only aims to enhance global understanding of patient safety. It also promotes global solidarity and action to achieve WHO’s vision of a world in which no one is harmed in health care, and every patient receives safe and respectful care – every time, everywhere. On World Patient Safety Day 2023, WHO calls for patients, families and communities to be actively involved in their care process. This call also extends to the health workforce: it’s time to shift perspective to see patients as partners in health, not just recipients of care. #WHOEMRO #UniversalHealthCoverage #PatientSafety #WPSD2023 #HealthForAll_ByAll
