DOHA: The World Innovation Summit for Health (WISH) a global initiative of Qatar Foundation in partnership with Imperial College London will host a webinar this week to discuss concerns surrounding unprofessional behaviour by some doctors who pose an unacceptable risk to patient safety.

Taking place tomorrow the webinar forms part of ‘Safer Care Accelerator’ series by Leading Health Systems Network (LHSN) a WISH initiative which shares best practice and inspires health systems worldwide to provide safer care for patients.

The initiative is in line with QF’s vision to reinforce Qatar’s pioneering role as an emerging centre for healthcare innovation while unlocking human potential.

Dr Kevin Stewart clinical director of the Clinical Effectiveness and Evaluation Unit at the Royal College of Physicians will lead the webinar entitled ‘Unprofessional behaviour: An unacceptable risk to patient safety’. The webinar will reveal that although a vast majority of doctors behave to the highest professional standards there is clear evidence to suggest a link between unprofessional behaviour and medical errors.

The seminar will focus on key challenges facing health systems.
