What is Quality
 Quality means doing the right things right
the first time.
 Quality can be said to be, at least in part,
compliance with standards. Standards are
created when experts are able to understand
what the right things are and how the right
things are best achieved based on Research
and Clinical Evidence
 When recipients of care define quality, they
judge whether or not the right things are
done in ways that meet their own needs and
expectations.

5
What is Quality
The Institute of Medicine defines
quality as:
"The degree to which health care
services for individuals and
populations increase the probability of
desired health outcomes and are
consistent with current professional
knowledge of best practice."

6
Aspects of Quality
Measurable Quality
Appreciative Quality
Perceptive Quality

7
Measurable Quality
 Can be defined objectively as compliance
with, or adherence to standards.
 Clinically, these standards may take the
form of practice parameters or protocols,
or they may establish acceptable
expectations for patient and organizational
outcomes.
 Standards serve as guidelines for
excellence.

8
Appreciative Quality
 Is the comprehension and appraisal of
excellence beyond minimal standards and
criteria.
 Requires the judgments of skilled,
experienced practitioners and sensitive,
caring persons.
 Peer review bodies rely on the judgments of
like professionals in determining the quality
or non-quality of specific patient-
practitioner interactions.

9
Perceptive Quality
 Is the degree of excellence which is
perceived by the recipient or the observer
of care rather than by the provider of
care.
 Is generally based more on the degree of
caring expressed by physicians, nurses,
and other staff than on the physical
environment and technical competence.

10
Dimensions of Quality
 The key dimensions of care/performance
provide the framework for quality
management activities in all healthcare
settings and balanced and well-integrated
quality, cost, and risk perspective. They
are foundational as ways of thinking about
patient care, what is important to patients,
and what should be prioritized in
performance measurement.
