The NHS patient safety strategy | NHS Improvement
This strategy sets out what the NHS will do to achieve its vision to continuously improve patient safety. To do this the NHS will build on two foundations: a patient safety culture and a patient safety system.
Three strategic aims will support the development of both:
• improving understanding of safety by drawing intelligence from multiple
sources of patient safety information (Insight)
• equipping patients, staff and partners with the skills and opportunities to
improve patient safety throughout the whole system (Involvement)
• designing and supporting programmes that deliver effective and sustainable
change in the most important areas (Improvement).
