@APIC A6. Patient safety for me is about the human right to safe care and about equity- that safe care can be delivered across resource levels. #IIPWChat
@APIC A5.Organizations can stop giving a platform to fringe figures that spread fake news, even if they generate views and engagement. Schools/universities can educate students of how to assess information and spot fake news. Individuals can work on their scientific literacy. #IIPWChat
@APIC Flexibility, scalability and resilience of healthcare systems is key, it's impossible to provide high-quality care without it. Governments must invest in natural disaster and pandemic preparedness in order for HCFs to be able to keep giving quality care in emergencies. #IIPWChat
@APIC A2. I think we need to clearly communicate risks of HAIs, as well as their human and financial burdens to the general public, governments, and other key stakeholders. #IIPWChat
@APIC A1. We need to realize that although sufficient quality resources and equitable access to them are key, it is possible to have very solid infection prevention with relatively simple resources, and we must prioritize the role of behavior and human factors in IPC. #IIPWChat
