Abstract:
Patient participation in patient safety serves as one of the objectives in patient safety management, and as a priority research area in patient safety, bearing critical importance in ensuring patient safety, and reducing or avoiding medical adverse events. Children′s Hospital of Fudan University has made active explorations to promote patients in patient safety by inviting patient participation. The measures taken include empowering the child patient families and encouraging their proactive awareness and involvement, especially in establishing an advisory council of child patient parents as a platform for patient participation in patient safety. The research found that as a doctor-patient communication and collaboration platform, the council proves highly effective. It can optimally integrate child patient families, medical institutions, and third-party supervisors, making worthy contributions to discovering patient safety hazards, improving patient safety issues, and promoting patient participation in patient safety.From patient perspectives, the council plays an important role in awareness advocating, suggestions, and communication assistance. At the same time, the three-level participation of the council provides new horizons for encouraging participation awareness of patients, broaden channels of participation and capabilities of patient participation.
