🩺 World Patient Safety Day 2026 🩺

On 17 September 2026, we came together to recognize World Patient Safety Day under the theme:

“Safe Care for Life – Safe Care for Noncommunicable Diseases.” (WHO)

The awareness program highlighted the importance of making patient safety a shared responsibility across every aspect of healthcare. Through engaging activities, interactive games, a Patient Safety Pledge Wall, patient feedback opportunities and more, participants came together to reflect on how small, everyday actions can make a meaningful difference.

From effective communication and accurate documentation to following safety protocols, reporting incidents and near misses, and listening to patients — every action matters.

💙 Together, we continue to strengthen our commitment to delivering safe, compassionate and patient-centered care.
