On Thursday 17 September 2026 the seventh annual World Patient Safety Day takes place, focused on the theme of Safe care for noncommunicable diseases (NCDs)_

One of the core objectives of this year’s World Patient Safety Day is to raise awareness of the patient safety challenges associated with NCDs throughout the course of a patient’s care and treatment.
