On World Patient Safety Day, September 17th, 2020, gather with your friends and families (with physical distancing and masks) to learn about how you can protect yourself as a patient, and serve as an advocate for your loved ones who are receiving medical care. The Annual World Patient Safety Day will be celebrated globally to reiterate the importance of health care safety and raise global awareness.

Patient Safety Movement will be hosting a 3-hour virtual event connecting patients, health workers, policymakers, celebrities, and global citizens uniting together to learn how patient and health worker safety can be advanced and what you can do to protect yourself and loved ones.

This event will include memorials and tributes to honor loved ones who are no longer with us due to medical harm. We will celebrate the patients who have survived medical harm, and recognize the front-line workers who are committed to make health care safe. We plan to stream global activities taking place across the world, while educating and entertaining you along the way.
