Canadian Patient Safety Week runs from October 28 to November 1. CPSW is a national, annual campaign that started in 2005 to inspire extraordinary improvement in patient safety and quality. CPSW is relevant to anyone who engages with our healthcare system: providers, patients, leaders and citizens. Working together, we can help spread the message to #ConquerSilence. If something looks wrong, feels wrong, or is wrong – it’s important to speak up. To find out more: www.patientsafetyweek.ca.

An important part of patient safety is understanding your medications. Here are 5 questions to ask about your medications to your family doctor or pharmacist. If you’ve still got questions, book a medication review with the Camrose PCN’s pharmacist by calling (780) 608-4927.
