Distinguished speakers from around the world will discuss and
present on groundbreaking solutions in patient safety, including
leveraging real-time data from electronic medical records, the
transformative impact of artificial intelligence in healthcare,
implementing best practices for patient safety, championing data
transparency, and cultivating a culture of safety systemwide.
The featured keynote presenters are PSMF Founder Joe Kiani; WHO
Director-General Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus; president emeritus and
senior fellow at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, Dr.
Donald M. Berwick; Surgeon General of California, Dr. Diana Ramos;
Director of the Center for Quality Improvement and Patient Safety,
Dr. Craig Umscheid; and Chief Medical Officer at WebMD, Dr. John
Whyte. Panelists represent a broad spectrum of healthcare
administrators, clinicians, patient safety experts and advocates,
academic researchers, MedTech executives, patients, and their
families.
“We can’t stop until there is ZERO patient and clinician harm in
our hospitals,” said Joe Kiani, Founder of the Patient Safety
Movement Foundation. “We have the know-how and the innovations to
create a safer healthcare system today, but we must take action. I
think AI, if used properly, will be a game changer. I hope to see
every healthcare system represented at our global Summit.”
“Patient safety is advancing faster than ever before thanks to
new innovations and the dedication and commitment of our global
patient safety community and the patients themselves,” said PSMF
CEO Dr. Michael Ramsay. “We look forward to sharing what we know
and learning about everyone’s challenges. This Summit will be a
unique opportunity to make lifelong connections that will support
worldwide efforts toward achieving ZERO patient harm.”

THE PATIENT SAFETY MOVEMENT FOUNDATION
In 2012, Joe Kiani founded the non-profit Patient Safety
Movement Foundation to eliminate preventable medical errors in
hospitals. His team worked with patient safety experts from around
the world to create Actionable Evidence-Based Practices that
address top challenges. Hospitals can make a formal commitment to
ZERO preventable deaths, and healthcare technology companies are
asked to sign the Open Data Pledge to share their data so that
predictive algorithms can be developed to identify errors before
they become fatal. The PSMF was established through the support of
the Masimo Foundation for Ethics, Innovation, and Competition in
Healthcare.
