Complex, multi-layered health care systems can sometime stray from patient safety considerations. Thus, International Patient Safety Day, observed on September 17, reminds us that patient safety is up to all of us. All relevant stakeholders in our health care process —patients, doctors, administrators — need to work together to ensure the safe delivery of health care.
Finally, the theme of International Patient Safety Day in 2019 is to build a culture of safety at all levels of the health care system.
