Safe care for people with non-communicable diseases.

World Patient safety Day 2026



The dedicated World Patient Safety Day campaign is centered around four key messages: 
  • People living with NCDs are at increased risk of harm in health care,

  • Strong, integrated health systems and a supported health workforce are essential for safe care,
  • People living with NCDs must be partners in safe care,
