Patient Safety
At Asia MD, we believe patient safety is fundamental to providing quality healthcare services. We advocate the awareness and building a culture of patient safety to support healthcare institutions in Asia to deliver their best.
The global landscape of health care is changing and health systems operate in increasingly complex environments. While new treatments, technologies and care models can have therapeutic potential, they can also pose novel threats to safe care. Patient safety is now being recognized as a large and growing global public health challenge.
