hospitals copied us,it was the beginning of a
competition! » (hospital manager, 1st rank for quality for
the first quarters.Then other hospitals had better scores with
peer reviewand experience sharing processes);
 «When a client comes,he doesn’t recognize the
center anymore… we have new equipment,it is
clean,the difference is clear » (health worker, CS
