What is Quality Profiles? Quality Profiles explores the implications of quality improvement (QI), the rationale for change, and the barriers to improvements in the context of an expanded discussion of the personal, social, and economic impact of the health care conditions under review. The overall goal of this series is to provide health care organizations and employers with a rich, up-to-date collection of QI resources, illustrated by case studies, to use as a foundation for new program development. |

We have used a format designed to make the profiles easy to understand, adapt and implement.
