Public Health Quality Improvement Encyclopedia
|
 PHF has developed a comprehensive encyclopedia of 75 quality improvement tools and an extensive glossary to assist health departments in fulfilling their missions, applying for accreditation, improving the health of their communities, and becoming more efficient and effective.
The Public Health Quality Improvement Encyclopedia defines the purpose of each tool, explains what should be done after implementing each tool, and includes examples specific to public health settings. |
Public Health Quality Improvement Handbook |
"A copy of this book should be on the desk of every public health administrator in the United States."
- Lou Rowitz, PHD, University of Illinois at Chicago
There has never been a better time or a more needed one for public health to harness the energy, enthusiasm, hard work, and dedication of the workforce to make a lasting difference. By effectively using quality improvement tools and techniques, we can and will improve our nation's health.
The messages in The Public Health Quality Improvement Handbook are from leaders, physicians, practitioners, academics, consultants, and researchers who are successfully applying the quality improvement tools and techniques they share.
