Quality Corner
Latest update on Kaleida Health Quality Metrics from Dr. Ken Snyder:
Hello,
As part of our assessment to continually improve quality, we are asking each department to share the attached PowerPoint at their M & M or quality meeting. We recommend assigning a resident or fellow to review and present the data. The PowerPoint contains system level quality dashboards. You will also find commentary under each slide to discuss during your respective department meeting. The quality dashboards were presented at the Chief of Service and Medical Executive Committee (MEC) in October 2019.
The quality organization chart is also included in the event your department has any questions they would like to discuss with another service.
Thank you in advance for your continued commitment to enhance the quality of care and services we provide. If you have any questions please contact Dr. Snyder by email at KSnyder3@KaleidaHealth.org or by phone at 716-598-9163.
Respectfully yours,
Kenneth V. Snyder, M.D., Ph.D.
Vice President, Physician Quality
