HealthCareCAN, the Canadian Patient Safety Institute and Health Standards Organization, with support from Patients for Patient Safety Canada, have partnered to identify, celebrate and disseminate leading practices in patient engagement for patient safety.
Each year, a panel of judges from the three organizations, including patient representatives, carefully consider every nomination to identify the organizations and teams whose leading practices will be publicly celebrated. In addition, two teams, each consisting of a staff member and a patient partner, are selected to present at the National Health Leadership Conference (NHLC). All travel expenses and full registration to NHLC are covered.
