Safety and Quality in Health Care

Safety and quality in healthcare focus on ensuring patients receive effective, evidence-based care without unnecessary risks or harm. Safety means preventing errors, infections, and injuries during medical treatment, while quality involves providing consistent, high-standard care that meets patients' needs and outcomes. Together, they aim to improve health results, patient satisfaction, and trust. Healthcare organizations continuously assess and refine practices to minimize harm, promote best practices, and deliver reliable, compassionate care for all patients.
