Doha, Qatar: The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) is celebrating the 10th Qatar Patient Safety Week from September 15-21, under the theme “Improving Diagnosis for Patient Safety.”
This week-long event coincides with World Patient Safety Day and reflects the growing international awareness of diagnostic errors as a major concern in patient safety.
The issue has only recently gained attention, likely stemming from the challenges in assessing and addressing it
The 10th Qatar Patient Safety Week aims to raise awareness and emphasise the importance of accurate, safe and timely diagnosis and its central role in improving patient safety.
The week also focuses on prioritising diagnostic safety in patient safety policies and practices at all levels of healthcare, in line with Qatar’s strategic plans and the Global Patient Safety Action Plan.
