A resident journal club for quality improvement.

摘要

An essential element in creating a safer health care environment and system is embedding the practice of quality into residency training. The ACGME's core competencies and Health Professions Education Summit core areas can be used as guides for incorporating quality and safety education into residency training programs. We have conducted a literature review to build a reading list that residency program directors can use to improve quality and safety literacy within training programs, stimulate discussion and interest in quality and safety projects, and fulfill ACGME requirements on systems-based practice. Our goal was to find highly relevant and educational articles that apply principles of quality management in health care.
