Type: News

Focus Area: Patient Safety

It's time for a National Patient Safety Board and to kick start the new year, the NPSB Advocacy Coalition released a 30-second video calling viewers to take action to support the creation of an NPSB. The goal of the video is to inform viewers about the persistent issue of patient safety and the need to make health care as safe as flying. Viewers are encouraged to visit npsb.org where they can reach out to their legislators to express their support for H.R. 9377 – the National Patient Safety Board Act, which creates an NPSB to create solutions to prevent patient safety events from occurring.
