Patient safety culture

To improve health levels and the effectiveness of medical diagnostic procedures, and to prevent complications, recommendations have been developed for the public, as each of us is a potential patient:

 

1. Remember that the foundation of your health and well-being is disease prevention, which includes a whole range of measures: quitting smoking and alcohol abuse, maintaining a normal weight, proper nutrition, physical activity, strengthening the immune system (adequate sleep, use of vitamin D₃, minerals), and observing hygiene rules.
2. Try to seek medical help in a timely manner to avoid delays and prevent the problem from becoming chronic. Undergo a medical examination.
3. When visiting a doctor, provide complete and accurate information about your health and any emerging problems – this is important for making a correct diagnosis.
4. Do not hesitate to ask questions if you are a patient or a relative/legal representative to obtain more information about the disease, its causes and course, prevention of complications, and the correct strategy for emerging problems.
5. Inform healthcare professionals about any deviations in your health or the health of your ward while receiving medical care.

Lead a healthy lifestyle! Be healthy and take care of your loved ones!
