"Towards Safer and Higher-Quality Healthcare: Practical Applications for Performance Improvement in Hospitals"
In a world of accelerating medical and technological advancement, the quality of healthcare services stands as a fundamental pillar for ensuring patient safety and achieving optimal treatment outcomes. However, global statistics reveal concerning challenges: 9.2% of patients experience harm during their care journey, of which 43.5% is preventable. Furthermore, medical errors are a cause of death for thousands of people worldwide annually.
Based on these facts, this course is designed to address:
Core concepts of Total Quality in Healthcare and its six dimensions: Safety, Effectiveness, Appropriateness, Accessibility, Patient Satisfaction, and Efficiency.
Performance measurement tools and data analysis (e.g., control charts, flowcharts) to identify sources of variation in processes.
Strategies for successful implementation of improvement programs, using proven models like PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act), change management, and enhancing collaboration among multidisciplinary teams.
The role of effective leadership in building an organizational culture that supports continuous learning and transforms tacit knowledge into explicit practices.
This workshop aims to empower participants to:
Apply scientific methodologies to identify and solve problems within their work environments.
Design evidence-based quality improvement initiatives with systematically measured outcomes.
Foster a safety culture through effective communication and engagement of patients and medical teams.
We hope this event serves as a practical step towards safer hospitals, where the commitment to quality translates into daily practices that save lives and enhance the healthcare experience for everyone.
