Patient Safety: Your Role in Making Healthcare Safer

Help your patients take an active role in their safety with this 10-minute video and full-color brochure.

Patient Safety: Your Role in Making Healthcare Safer is part of the National Patient Safety Foundation's Stand up for Patient Safety campaign.

Your patients will learn practical ways to help ensure their safety — in both inpatient and outpatient settings:

• Learn as much as you can about your illness, condition, treatment plans and any tests you will be undergoing.
• Give your doctors and nurses complete information about your medical history as well as all medications you are taking.
• In the hospital, ask every person to identify himself or herself when they come into your room.
• Be sure you understand your discharge instructions before you leave the hospital or clinic.
  
  Show this video to your patients and reinforce the safety message with the companion brochure.
