Quality Update

Short Cuts: Picture to the World is a Click Away

For the past two years, the Center for Innovation in Quality Patient Care has made its presence felt throughout Hopkins Hospital by assisting front-line staff in developing projects that help eliminate medical errors and improve the way care is delivered. Now, the Center aims to share this pioneering work, its tools of the trade and the experiences of its experts around the world through a new Web site, www.hopkinsquality.com.

Surfing the site, visitors can examine case studies, such as  improving ICU communication with daily goal sheets, or reducing catheter-related bloodstream infections. It offers information on tools that professionals can use to start their own quality interventions,   and updates about Center-sponsored seminars and symposiums on practical approaches to quality and safety programs. The Web site also includes an electronic version of Quality Update.
