Abstract:
Patient safety is an essential dimension of the quality of care, particularly in primary care, where the monitoring of chronic patients, pharmacological prescribing, and care coordination are concentrated. In the context of an aging population, older adults may be more vulnerable to the consequences of incidents due to multimorbidity, polypharmacy, frailty, and functional dependence.
