CHR de la citadelle is in charge of patients’ safety since a long time. CHR got a quality and safety department only dedicated to this activity which conduct safety surveys, promote safety and innovates tools like videos. We’re members of a quality and safety French speaking organization (CIPIQS). Last year we’ve implemented a large patients empowerment activity by making a video about patient’s identity verification during all the parts of their managements. We’re also in charge of in situ simulation particularly in trauma management but also in pediatric, anesthesiology and neonatology.
