Advanced Patient Safety Course (APSC) – ESAIC

As you all know, The European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC) promotes the professional role of anaesthesiologists to improve perioperative patient outcomes by focusing on the quality of care and patient safety strategy.

During the past years, we have been working on educational programmes to enhance knowledge and training in Patient Safety. Our latest project is the “Safer Care to Save Lives” programme which consists of a comprehensive package of Patient Safety education for Anaesthesiologists, healthcare professionals, hospital managers and even patients. This package includes the Advanced Patient Safety Course (APSC). The first edition (Pilot course) will take place in Amsterdam on 19th & 20th September 2022.
It is designed as a blended on-demand/live course to teach key patient safety strategies in acute settings. We will use innovative teaching including interactive lectures and 360º videos of simulated scenarios which will be followed by debriefing. The participants will have the “student manual” available with all the information and a bibliography.

What’s more, this course will offer a European standard certification in Patient Safety, the ESAIC Advanced Patient Safety Certificate. We propose that bearers of this certificate be regarded as champions for patient safety within their own field and institutions.
