Professional Education Program for Sustainable Patient Care Safety

Why this training?
The Covid-19 crisis emphasizes the need for continuous adaptation to emerging risks in the healthcare system. This requires a change of perspective not only in times of crisis, but also in day-to-day dealings within the complex system. Greater patient safety requires proactive, risk-oriented action. Our training enables a change of perspective and promotes a new attitude for the future.

Focus: The human factor
This certificate is based on a systemic understanding of patient safety in the clinical environment. Particular attention is paid to organizational factors such as safety culture and the “human factor”. Successful concepts from aviation are presented and transferred to clinical situations using case studies.

Our speakers are experienced scientists and safety experts from the aviation industry as well as practitioners in patient safety projects. The curriculum is based on the WHO model curriculum on patient safety, the learning objectives catalog of the Patient Safety Action Alliance and highlights specific aspects of the AHRQ report 2020 “Making Health Care Safer III”.
