The Safety Competencies Project, initiated by the Canadian Patient Safety Institute (CPSI) began in 2006. The interprofessional competencies were conceived using the CanMEDS framework and designed to facilitate professional educators in the creation of safety curricula for their own profession.

The PCC Curriculum on the Go was developed through the collaboration of CPSI, the Paediatric Chairs of Canada (PCC) and the Program Directors from the National Paediatric Residency Programs and used the CPSI Document, The Safety Competencies: Enhancing Patient Safety Across the Professions as a framework.

This curriculum is designed to be flexible and interactive. It is presented in a case based format providing options for educators to host sessions of varying lengths and opportunities for inclusion into day to day activity. It includes PowerPoint presentations, case studies (stories) with  supporting facilitator guides, recommended reading and references.

This is not intended as a complete curriculum but as a framework to build on and an opportunity to create site specific curriculum based on resources, culture and experience. We encourage users to become KEN authors and submit new material for sharing within the programs

We welcome all of your feedback and comments.  We invite you to leave comments directly on the Curriculum site.
