Made by Doctors, for Patients
We make patient education and wellbeing easy for Doctors and Patients.
Understanding the risk of poor patient education
Inadequate patient education on surgical procedures results in unfavorable outcomes. Research indicates that up to 70% of patients feel ill-informed before surgery (Lee et al., 2019). Insufficient understanding leads to anxiety, decision regret, and post-operative complications. In today’s digital age, 65% of patients report that they prefer online health information, ensuring informed decisions, reducing complications, and improving overall surgical experiences (Pew Research Center, 2021).

Changing the way we empower patients
We know from extensive research that effective patient education leads to positive outcomes (healthier patients). Informed patients exhibit reduced anxiety, improved adherence, and shorter hospital stays (Mistry et al., 2017). Studies show that proper education reduces post-operative complications by up to 30% (Bishop et al., 2017).
At Safe Patient, we’re committed to creating the best patient experiences as possible. This includes constantly improving the way that we use technology to understand and engage with patients, doctors and health stakeholders.
