World Patient Safety Day in 2021

World Patient Safety Day in 2021

On September 17, 2021, the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, together with Roszdravnadzor and in cooperation with the WHO representative office in Russia, planned events dedicated to the World Patient Safety Day. According to tradition, the doctors of the OGAUZ "Sanatorium "Krasivo " held a medical conference. In 2021 the theme "Safety in providing care to mothers and newborns" was chosen for the World Patient Safety Day due to the high burden of risk and harm to which women and newborns are exposed due to unsafe care during pregnancy and childbirth, and even more so, this problem has worsened in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
