WORLD PATIENT SAFETY DAY
Today is the first-ever World Patient Safety Day! To honor that, we at the Washington Patient Safety Coalition want to highlight some of resources we have available for those working within the patient safety field!
The Washington Patient Safety Coalition is a program of the Foundation for Health Care Quality (FHCQ) that acts as a neutral hub uniting a diverse range of healthcare stakeholders to achieve common patient safety goals. Find out more about WPSC here!
Our weekly Friday 5 newsletter aims to keep our members up-to-date on the latest news and resources in patient safety. With articles, interviews, podcasts, videos, reports, press releases, event invites, and job listings, Friday 5 is an easy way to stay current on the local and national goings-on in the ever-changing healthcare industry.

We host monthly webinars featuring a variety of topics across the patient safety landscape. Our current webinar series focuses on Shared Decision Making and how to understand, adopt and elevate it into your workspace. All past webinars are available on our website.
All webinars are from noon to 1pm PST and open to anyone interested. Webinars are free to those on staff at any of our member organizations, and available at a small fee to non-members.
