Stories of Safety
Stories of Safety is a podcast that delves into the stories, science, and policy that have shaped health care safety. Hosted by patient safety researcher Professor Jane O’Hara, and funded and delivered by National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Yorkshire & Humber Patient Safety Research Collaboration (PSRC), this series brings together leading voices from the UK and beyond to explore a deceptively simple yet crucial question: How safe are we, and how can we improve? Through insightful conversations with researchers, patients and families, policymakers, and those on the front lines, Stories of Safety explores the complexity of health care and the challenges of managing and measuring safety. Join us as we navigate the ever-evolving world of patient safety—one story at a time.
