The PATSAFE project is aimed at improving and strengthening the Institute of Clinical Medicine of the University of Tartu (ICM-UT) patient safety research capacity with the special focus on the improvement of knowledge and skills in methods, technics and experience for patient safety research.

Specific objectives

  • To strengthen the scientific and technological capacity of ICM-UT and raise early stage researchers (ESR) and staff research profile in the field of identification and measurement of risks and hazards in patient safety by linking it with two internationally-leading research institutions in the field.
  • To increase the research capacity and to ensure the continuity and sustainability in patient safety research in ICM-UT by focusing on patient safety culture and patient empowerment on their safety.
  • To increase the soft skills of ESRs.
  • To increase the visibility of ICM-UT’s excellence in patient safety research and its potential as a partner to internationally leading European and global research and policy counterparts as well to strengthen ICM-UT´s networking capacity and credibility on the national and international level.
