Health Foundation, November 2015
- A synthesis of the lessons from the Health Foundation’s work on improving patient safety over the past decade.
- Part I illustrates why improving safety is so difficult and complex, and why current approaches need to change.
- Part II looks at some of the work being done to improve safety and offers examples and insights to support practical improvements in patient safety.
- Part III explains why the system needs to think differently about safety, giving policymakers an insight into how their actions can create an environment where continuous safety improvement will flourish, as well as how they can help to tackle system-wide problems that hinder local improvement.
