The Excellent Care for All Act (ECFAA), effective June 2010, requires all Ontario hospitals to create and make public an annual Quality Improvement Plan (QIP).
What is a QIP?
A QIP is a public commitment to meet quality improvement goals. This plan outlines how the Huron Perth Healthcare Alliance (HPHA) will improve the quality of care provided to our patients in the coming year.
How is the QIP developed?
The HPHA leadership and Patient Partners develop an annual QIP which is endorsed by the HPHA Quality & Social Accountability Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. The planning committee responds to mandatory hospital indicators as identified by Health Quality Ontario as well as determining areas where HPHA has room for improvement and identifying targets to achieve.
