Speak Up For Patient Safety

Erin Lloyd, Group Head of Nursing, Quality & Risk Management, Ramsay Sime Darby Health Care Group

Speak Up For Patient Safety

According to the World Health Organization, 134 million adverse events occur globally each year due to unsafe care in hospitals in low- and middle-income countries. This means people who go to healthcare facilities for treatment are actually getting harmed. The WHO has recognised that patient safety is a global public health priority, declaring September 17, 2019 as the first World Patient Safety Day. Erin Lloyd, Group Head of Nursing, Quality & Risk Management, Ramsay Sime Darby Health Care Group, brings the perspective of the healthcare provider to this discussion about patient safety.
