World Patient Safety Day is observed worldwide every September 17. Established by the World Health Organization (WHO) at the 72nd World Health Assembly in May 2019, this day aims to highlight the importance of patient safety in healthcare. It addresses the significant issue of medical errors, which affect approximately 10% of patients globally, leading to millions of adverse events and deaths, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The inaugural observance took place in 2019, with participation from various countries including Afghanistan, Canada, Germany, and the United States. Activities on this day involve health authorities, professionals, and the public focusing on strategies to manage healthcare risks and improve patient safety. The campaign emphasizes the critical role of patient safety in achieving Universal Health Coverage and Sustainable Development Goals.
