World Patient Safety Day is an opportunity to raise public awareness, foster collaboration between stakeholders and mobilize global action to improve patient safety.This year, the theme is “Safe care for every newborn and every child”, with the slogan “Patient safety from the start!”, recognizing the vulnerability of this age group to risks and harm caused by unsafe care.
WHO calls for urgent action to eliminate avoidable harm in paediatric and newborn care, building on the efforts of previous campaigns on ‘safe childbirth’, ‘prioritizing patient safety’, ‘health worker safety’, ‘medication safety’, ‘patient and family engagement’ and ‘diagnostic safety’. World Patient Safety Day 2025 aims to drive meaningful improvements and reaffirm every child's right to safe and quality care.
