Abstract
What do we mean by patient safety? How does this relate to what changes we can make in practice? The main goal is obviously to keep the patient safe. It involves systematically thinking about everything that the patient will experience. Patient safety should be directly related to quality and clinical effectiveness. Clinical governance can be used, which is a framework through which healthcare organisations are accountable for continuously improving the quality of their services and safeguarding high quality of care to assist in implementing patient safety in practices.
