PFPS in ActionPFPS collaboration with SAVE LIVES: Clean Your Hands 2013 – Patient Participation! Every year on or around 5 May, the WHO Save Lives: Clean Your Hands campaign, draws global attention to the importance of hand hygiene to prevent the transmission of healthcare-associated infections.
This year PFPS has been collaborating with the Save Lives: Clean Your Hands campaign, to encourage action on this year’s focus - patient participation in hand hygiene promotion. The campaign is calling for hospitals and health-care facilities to work with their patients, patients’ organizations and local communities to promote hand hygiene.
WHO activities- A dedicated webpage has been created on patient participation in hand hygiene promotion. This links directly to the WHO guidelines on engaging patients in hand hygiene initiatives and tips on how to implement a successful patient participation programme
- We are collecting an inventory of films of patients and families affected by healthcare-associated infection and patient participation in hand hygiene promotion
- A Teleclass was held on patient participation in hand hygiene promotion and improvement - pros and cons. The recording and slides are available online to those who sign up for free
- A survey has been conducted with health facilities that have patient participation programmes and results will be shared on 5 May
Patients for Patient Safety Champions
Patients for Patient Safety (PFPS) works with a global network of PFPS Champions, who advocate for patient engagement in patient safety improvement efforts at international, national and local levels. Without the dedicated support and energy of the patient advocates, PFPS would not exist.
All PFPS Champions have attended a PFPS In-Country or Regional Workshop, and have committed to the vision described in the London Declaration and to the PFPS Collaborative Agreement.
PFPS started with 21 PFPS Champions who were selected to attend the first Patients for Patient Safety Workshop which took place in London, United Kingdom in November 2005. Their collective voice and passion to make a change in health care led to the drafting of the London Declaration. Today the programme has over 250 Patients for Patient Safety Champions from over 50 countries, advocating for safety improvements worldwide.
