Humor me into medication safety
Wednesday, 7 September 2022
To mark Patient Solidarity Day (PSD 2022) and in support of WHO's 5 moments for medication safety, IAPO is launching the "Humour me into medication safety" cartoons highlighting the 5 moments for medication safety - a patient engagement tool focusing on the key moments where action by the patient or caregiver can reduce the risk of harm associated with the use of medications. It aims to engage and empower patients to be involved in their own care through collaboration with health professionals.
These cartoons were specially designed by Ufuk Uyanik to encourage dialogue on social media on how we can all reduce the risk of harm associated with the use of medications. We invite you to share them using the hashtag #PSD2022, #PatientSolidarityDay2022, #MedicationSafety and #PatientSafety and #Humourmedicationsafety. At the end of December the social media post with the best caption will be awarded a prize of USD $500.
