An international partnership of 16 health systems will collaborate on patient safety issues such as hospital-acquired infections, according to an article on the Canadian Medical Association Journal website.
Leading Health Systems Network (LHSN), a partnership between Qatar’s World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH) and Imperial College London, launched the Safer Care Accelerator in March to share best practices and expedite improvement in patient safety.
The network will spend the first few months developing a patient safety scorecard to determine what information health systems collect about adverse events and what they do with those data.
Once the scorecard is completed, the project will focus on developing and comparing solutions on one specific issue, such as hospital-acquired infections.
