The primacy of the patient and family in a quality-improvement environment
Abstract:
The primary customers of health care services are the patient and family. It is important to adopt a mission and philosophy that put the patient and family at the center of all quality improvement programs. The principles put forth by Deming in his 14 points can be applied to patient-focused quality improvement measures. Creating a foundation for the professional practice of nursing and using and expanding tools that are already in use can help care providers meet the needs of their customers and help people to live healthier, better lives.
