Why?
Evidence of unsafe care!WHO summarized the current research into patient
safety and published the findings in a report which identified some key findings.

The National Quality Forum in 2006 published a list of ‘errors’ pertaining to patient safety and called them "never events”.
Among the errors cited, were;
Other sources of patient safety problems resulted in compromised patient protection, adverse events involving devices/equipment and criminal events.
Hospital & community
acquired infectionsDrug errors Surgical errors

“The Mission of the High 5s Project is to facilitate implementation and evaluation of standardised patient safety solutions within a global learning community to achieve measurable, significant, and sustained reductions in highly important patient safety problems.”
-WHO (2012)
WHO (2012) is implementing the high 5’s project multi-nationally, focusing on similar areas to those we found to be of most importance through their predominance in the literature surrounding Patient Safety..
