New Database Offers Patient Safety Education and Training Resources

AHRQ has released a new Patient Safety Education and Training Catalog that describes 333 patient safety programs currently available in the United States. The catalog offers an easily navigable database of education and training programs including a robust collection of information tagged for easy searching and browsing. The database identifies program characteristics, including clinical area, program and learning objectives, evaluation measures and cost. The clinical areas align with AHRQ’s Patient Safety Network (PSNet) Collections. The catalog was developed by the American Institutes for Research through a review of available programs between 2010 and 2011.
