Assignment task:
First, you need to identify a healthcare quality management criterion that you can measure, a healthcare organization where this has been done, and a healthcare professional within that organization. Then you will collect data on the healthcare quality management cycle, namely measurement, assessment and improvement, within the chosen healthcare organization. The final part of this project will be a written report and a PowerPoint presentation. Creativity and critical thinking are very important for successfully completing this project. Develop a brief project outline. This outline briefly describes how you will conduct an analysis on the chosen organization's quality management criterion, and how and when you will use your healthcare professional for critiques or recommendations in the next three modules. Your final analysis report which is due in Module 6 will answer the following three questions:
