🩺 Patient Safety Awareness Week Reminder 🩺 Have you noticed more illnesses or deaths lately? It's a concerning trend. Understanding excess deaths—those beyond the expected—is crucial. Perception can skew reality; heightened awareness doesn't mean increased occurrences. Factors like delayed diagnoses, reduced healthcare visits, and pandemic aftermath contribute. Stay vigilant, prioritize health, and seek timely care. Yet, this doesn't mean that there isn't something going on... Nonetheless, let's ensure patient safety together! #PatientSafety #HealthAwareness #StayVigilant

September 17 is World Patient Safety Day. World Patient Safety Day is an opportunity to raise public awareness and foster collaboration between patients, health workers, policymakers, and health care leaders to improve patient safety. A diagnosis identifies a patient’s health problem, and is a key to accessing the care and treatment they need. A diagnostic error is the failure to establish a correct and timely explanation of a patient’s health problem, which can include delayed, incorrect, or missed diagnoses, or a failure to communicate that explanation to the patient. #LaurelMed #LMSpassionateaboutpeople #PatientSafety Text source: https://lnkd.in/ePX-6e5s

🌍 Why we acknowledge World Patient Safety Day 🌍 As we approach World Patient Safety Day, we want to highlight a crucial statistic: 1 in 10 patients are harmed during healthcare, leading to 3 million deaths globally each year. Even more concerning is that over 50% of this harm is preventable. This statistic highlights the urgent need for ongoing awareness and action to improve patient safety. Tomorrow, we will share a video in which Insync CEO Jeremy Summers discusses this vital issue with Shannon Harbinson, Senior Manager of our Health, Education, and Community Services team. Together, let’s recognise the importance of patient safety and commit to making a difference.

Today is World Patient Safety Day! Established by the World Health Organisation, this year's campaign is to 'get it right, make it safe', highlighting the critical importance of correct and timely diagnosis in ensuring patient safety and improving health outcomes. A diagnosis identifies a patient’s health problem, and is a key to accessing the care and treatment they need. A diagnostic error is the failure to establish a correct and timely explanation of a patient’s health problem, which can include delayed, incorrect, or missed diagnoses, or a failure to communicate that explanation to the patient. The magnitude of diagnostic errors is profound, accounting for nearly 16% of preventable harm across health systems. Most adults are likely to face at least one diagnostic error in their lifetime.
