IPSG infographic with Arabic translation in a Saudi hospital.

The International Patient Safety Goals (IPSG) were developed in 2006 by the Joint Commission International (JCI). The goals were adapted from the JCAHO's National Patient Safety Goals.[1]

Compliance with IPSG has been monitored in JCI-accredited hospitals since January 2006.[1] The JCI recommends targeted solution tools to help hospital to meet IPSG standards.[2]
