HCDS 5053 Quality Improvement Science in Health Care
(3 hours)
Students will learn about the definition and measurement of healthcare quality indicators across a variety of conditions and settings. Students will also learn about the economic and public policy forces that drive quality improvement, understanding the pitfalls inherent when attempting to measure quality outcomes. Significant effort will be placed on health care’s ‘Culture of Safety’ and reduction of errors and harm. Throughout the course, we will emphasize systems thinking as well as methods for risk assessment and patient safety improvement. Students will also consider the alignment of process management and safety with overall health care system goals.
