Now available: World Patient Safety Day webpage

The Joint Commission and Joint Commission International (JCI) proudly recognize World Patient Safety Day, an annual observance sponsored by the World Health Organization, that aligns with our commitment to ensuring what matters most – that all people always experience the safest, highest quality, best value healthcare across all settings.

While World Patient Safety Day isn’t until Sept. 17, our World Patient Safety Day webpage is now available. The page contains free resources related to this year’s theme, Improving Diagnosis for Patient Safety, including:

• The Joint Commission Journal on Quality and Patient Safety open-access article collection on diagnostic safety
• Links to free Quick Safety, Case Example, and Sentinel Event Alert publications related to diagnostic safety
• Details about the Sept. 17 webinar, “Diagnostic Safety: The Multidisciplinary Approach,” moderated by Dr. Neelam Dhingra, Vice President and Chief Patient Safety Officer, JCI, and featuring four international patient safety experts

Additional resources are on the way. Follow The Joint Commission on LinkedIn and Facebook, and find JCI on LinkedIn, Facebook, and X, to receive the latest updates. Join the conversation by using #WorldPatientSafetyDay and #diagnosticsafety.
