Quality Improvement Toolkit Welcome to Quality Improvement
Toolkit! Quality improvement (QI) in public health involves a
deliberate improvement process focused on activities that are
responsive to community needs and aimed at improving population
health. This toolkit allows local health departments (LHDs) to
search for QI resources to be adapted by LHDs as they learn
about and apply QI processes. All tools are categorized as
follows: - Literature: Intended for those new to QI, these tools
provide background information on QI concepts and their
application to public health. - Tools & Templates: For those
beginning to implement QI processes, these tools and templates
can be used to facilitate QI activities. - QI Examples:
Highlighting the work of LHDs nationwide, these case examples
and storyboards illustrate and narrate the implementation of QI
projects. - Organization-wide QI: For those advanced in QI
efforts, these tools help to institutionalize QI so it becomes
part of the agency culture.
