Quality Improvement
Improving the quality of care is the ultimate goal of HEALTHQUAL. Quality improvement methods and tools are adapted for every participating facility.
Quality Improvement Workshops: Quality improvement workshops are interactive, hands-on sessions designed to impart practical skills to facility staff for immediate use. HEALTHQUAL offers experienced quality improvement facilitators who teach improvement methods through real world examples of care. Specific examples are used to provide related skills and a complete learning experience. Quality Improvement Projects: Once baseline data collection and performance measurement has been completed, and key personnel have been trained through Quality Improvement Workshops, projects are undertaken to improve care based on a problem area identified by each facility. -Quality Improvement Projects follow these steps: -Prioritize area for improvement based on performance data. -Develop a project work plan. -Identify the sequential processes of the chosen system. -Implement changes. -Modify as needed. -Share strategies and best practices. |
