National Patient Safety Consortium: Learning from Large-Scale Collaboration

Abstract

From 2014 to 2018, the Canadian Patient Safety Institute brought together key partners and established the National Patient Safety Consortium to drive a shared action plan for safer healthcare. With ongoing consensus development on key priorities, an unprecedented level of collaboration and shared leadership with diverse stakeholders and patients and families as full partners, the Consortium and its Integrated Patient Safety Action Plan built a culture of engagement and improvement across Canada.
