First Grand Period Report

December 2, 2021

This COST Action (CA) is led by the ERNST Consortium which involves 37 countries, 29 from the European Union and 8 from COST Observer countries from Asia, North America and Latin America. This CA started on September 15th, 2020.

This CA seeks to open a scientific, technical, and social debate in order to share knowledge and experiences with the aim of contributing to patient safety. We want to achieve legal, technical, and social changes to install a pro-active safety culture, convinced that when professionals feel supported and capable of facing their tasks, the quality in healthcare increases. ERNST pursues to enhance the resilience of the healthcare workforces in stressful situations.
