In 2014, the Canadian Patient Safety Institute brought together key partners in Canadian healthcare and established the National Patient Safety Consortium to drive a shared action plan for safer healthcare. More than 50 participating organizations, including national organizations, provincial and territorial quality and patient safety councils, government representatives, professional associations and patient groups.

Since then, the National Patient Safety Consortium has had three meetings and there have been five summits and roundtables involving many partners and patients to develop the Integrated Patient Safety Action Plan. This video shares the thoughts of participants who are involved in the Integrated Patient Safety Action Plan and achieving safer healthcare in Canada.
