Quality Improvement & Patient Safety

Quality Improvement and Patient Safety is an important aspect of the NEA Baptist Health System and a responsibility of all Baptist employees. Our program aims to expose our Residents to the primary issues in the field of Quality Improvement by having them actively participate in finding solutions, by giving them the tools to begin addressing these issues through hands-on field research.  

Each Internal Medicine resident is an active member of one or more of our hospital's multidisciplinary Quality Improvement or Patient Safety teams.  These committees and task forces work to ensure the safety of our patients and help to provide continuous improvement in the care we provide. safety matters icon
