Healthcare Improvement

Healthcare Improvement refers to systematic efforts to enhance the quality, safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of healthcare services. This process involves identifying areas of healthcare that need enhancement, implementing changes, and measuring outcomes to ensure positive impacts on patient care. It typically includes strategies such as the adoption of best practices, the introduction of evidence-based interventions, quality assurance programs, patient safety initiatives, and continuous performance monitoring. The goal of healthcare improvement is to create better patient outcomes, reduce healthcare disparities, and increase patient and provider satisfaction while optimizing resource use within healthcare systems.
