A New Level of Patient Safety

For the past few years, IHI has been collaborating with change-minded organizations in the comprehensive redesign of care systems to achieve dramatically improved levels of patient safety. The organizations participating in this pivotal work have taken unconventional theories and applied them in practice to achieve significant and measurable results that can be replicated.

IHI and its colleagues are proud to present these practical innovations at the International Summit on Innovations in Patient Safety. This is your opportunity to learn from experts, share ideas, and connect with people from around the world who face similar challenges. If your organization is ready to take decisive action on patient safety, we urge you to join us for this important event.
