Consumer Union’s Safe Patient Project Hosting Webcast

Consumers Union’s Safe Patient Project (formerly Stop Hospital Infections) is holding a forum, “To Err Is Human, To Delay Is Deadly,” at the Kaiser Family Foundation in Washington, DC on November 17th. The forum marks the 10th anniversary of the Institute of Medicine study on medical errors and raises concerns about the lack of progress over the past decade in preventing medical harm. The Safe Patient Project campaign released a report earlier this year on the subject. The campaign covers the following issues: hospital-acquired infections, medical errors and other medical harm, physician accountability and drug safety.
