The Client and Patient Safety Strategy and its Implementation Plan 2022–2026 will promote inclusion, measures that strengthen safety, and the management of safety culture in Finland.
The vision is that Finland will be a model country for client and patient safety in 2026 — we will prevent avoidable harm. This means that we will introduce recommendations based on the best research data so that they will benefit the management, professionals, patients and clients in all organisations at all levels of operation.
In order for the vision to be realised, it has been divided into four strategic priorities. There are three objectives under each priority, and achieving these objectives will strengthen client and patient safety in practice. The Strategy includes an Implementation Plan so that the objectives can be translated into everyday activities right from the start of the strategy period. The strategic priorities, objectives and measures have been drawn up in such a way that the vision can be achieved. The implementation of the Strategy will be monitored using the indicators selected for the purpose.
The Strategy and its Implementation Plan have been prepared for the use of healthcare and social welfare professionals, the parties leading and supervising the activities, political decision-makers and clients, patients and their families. The Strategy is intended for both public and private actors and all stakeholders promoting safety.
