The purpose of this assignment is to discuss how an individual’s role within a health care organization affects or influences the application of quality improvement and measurement tools.
Quality improvement and measurement tools are utilized by a wide range of professionals within a health care organization and may be applied differently depending on the nature of the professional’s work.
