Quality and safety in healthcare, as an academic discipline, has made significant progress over recent decades, and there is now an active and established community of researchers and practitioners. However, work has predominantly focused on physical health, despite broader controversy regarding the attention paid to, and significance attributed to, mental health. Work from both communities is required in order to ensure that quality and safety is actively embedded within mental health research and practice and that the academic discipline of quality and safety accurately represents the scientific knowledge that has been accumulated within the mental health community.
作为一门学科，医疗保健领域的质量与安全在近几十年来取得了显著进展，如今已有一个活跃且成熟的研究人员和从业者群体。然而，尽管在对心理健康的关注程度及其重要性方面存在广泛争议，但相关工作主要集中在身体健康方面。为确保质量与安全积极融入心理健康研究与实践，且质量与安全这门学科能准确体现心理健康领域积累的科学知识，两个领域的工作都不可或缺。
