Finnish Centre for Client and Patient Safety
Our aim is to enhance client and patient safety in the Finnish social and health care by research as well as by training and networking client and patient safety experts.
We share information and distribute good practices and tools for client and patient safety improvement.
We organize the implementation of Client and Patient Safety Strategy and Action Plan 2022-2026 together with all 21 Wellbeing Services Counties in Finland.
Our office, affiliated to the Wellbeing Services County of Ostrobothnia, gets funding from the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health in Finland.
