There is a recognized need for patient safety content in medical school curricula. This commentary describes the development, implementation, and evaluation of a program that integrated quality and safety improvement concepts into an existing 3-year curriculum. A patient safety expert worked with faculty to recommend the content and goals of the pathway. Students reported positive reactions to the program.
