Patient Safety for Nursing Students

Welcome to the Patient Safety for Nursing Students website

This website provides a range of educational resources for the teaching and assessment of patient safety. It is informed by the Patient Safety Competency Framework (2017)  (Download PSCF Brochure) and represents the work of nursing scholars and educators who share a commitment to patient safety and who recognise that ‘the knowledge and skills nursing students develop during their undergraduate studies have a direct impact on patient safety’. Our aim in developing this website is to inspire and support educators to position patient safety as a fundamental and integral curriculum imperative.
