An international initiative spanning three continents that will provide healthcare facilities in resource-restricted settings with a means to improve service delivery will be launched at a conference in Cape Town today.

On the 9th and 10th of March 2011 the SafeCare Initiative organised a conference in Cape Town themed Meeting the challenges faced by emerging countries in the provision of quality primary health care. SafeCare invited over 100 guests from all over the world with a direct involvement or interest in the definition and evaluation of quality of health care provision to participate in the  conference. One important result is that an African network of healthcare policy-makers focusing on patient safety has been established. CLICK HERE for the conference page.

Each of the founder organisations of the SafeCare Initiative provides specific skills and experience on the quality improvement journey. Within this journey SafeCare recognizes five Certificates of Improvement to be able to plan, track and reward progress. READ MORE
