Patient Safety Virtual 2021
Theme: Re-engineering safety post-pandemic- from surviving to thriving
The fight against COVID-19 continues and patient safety remains a key focus in healthcare conversations around the world. However, the focus is now shifting towards reflecting on which tactics were the most impactful in the last months and how we can carry forward the momentum that this pandemic has created in the patient safety universe.
At this year’s edition of the Patient Safety Congress, we aim to look beyond COVID-19 and to focus the agenda on the ‘what now?’. Our speakers will present on the myriad innovations within infection control, CSSD and patient safety. They will also delve into discussions on trending issues giving delegates action points to take away and implement within their day-to-day.
Join us this November when our agenda will connect healthcare leaders and practitioners worldwide while sharing best practice and driving patient safety in the new normal.
