Become a Strategic Partner
PFPS US is a branch of the PFPS international network, established in 2021 by patient safety advocates with the mission of advancing the Global Patient Safety Action Plan 2021-2030 (GPSAP) in the United States.
In addition to individual PFPS Champions, the PFPS US network includes Strategic Partners, which are organizations interested in working with patients and their advocates to achieve one or more of the WHO GPSAP strategic objectives, in whole or in part. Organizational partners include government entities, educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, and for-profit organizations who are stakeholders in improving patient safety. These organizations have expressed a willingness to cooperate with PFPS Champions to improve patient safety.
The GPSAP sets forth seven Strategic Objectives:.
- Strategic objective 1. Policies to eliminate avoidable harm in health care
- Strategic objective 2. High-reliability systems
- Strategic objective 3. Safety of clinical processes
- Strategic objective 4. Patient and family engagement
- Strategic objective 5. Health worker education, skills and safety
- Strategic objective 6. Information, research and risk management
- Strategic objective 7. Synergy, partnership and solidarity
PFPS Strategic Partners are asked to actively support implementation of at least one of these Strategic Objectives, in whole or in part.
By joining PFPS US as a Strategic Partner, an organization is not required to support every strategy set forth in the GPSAP. Strategic Partners will be consulted in the development of specific implementation positions, proposals or actions taken by PFPS US, but not required to support or endorse any specific position, proposal or action pursued by PFPS US.
