| *Special Episode* Celebrating World Patient Safety Day 2023: Healthcare is, above all else, a human interaction Jamie Thomas King is an experienced actor in film, television and stage and a devoted student of yoga and meditation for more than twenty years. After the preventable death of his second son, Benjamin, Jamieâs deep respect for self-care, spiritual guidance, and human connection propelled him into the world of patient safety advocacy and to share his familyâs tragic story for the greater good of healthcare. Jamie regularly teaches our Patient Safety and Quality Masterclass and will be there for the next edition in Madrid on 9 â 11 October. He was also a patient advocate at the joint ESAIC/multi-society EU Summit on Patient Safety in 2020. This podcast is part of our month-long focus on patient safety and follows the World Patient Safety Day theme: âElevate the voice of patients!â "WHO calls on all stakeholders to take necessary action to ensure that patients are involved in policy formulation, are represented in governance structures, are engaged in co-designing safety strategies, and are active partners in their own care. This can only be achieved by providing platforms and opportunities for diverse patients, families, and communities to raise their voice, concerns, expectations and preferences to advance safety, patient centeredness, trustworthiness, and equity.â | 17 September 2023 |
