UAA starts an Institute for Healthcare Improvement Open School
by Kathleen McCoy |
The Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Open School for Health Professions is an interprofessional educational community that gives students the skills to become agents of change in health care improvement. Students in nursing, medicine, allied health, pharmacy, dentistry, policy and other health professions are encouraged to participate in order to gain and improve skills like quality improvement, patient safety, teamwork, leadership and patient-centered care.
This opportunity is free and available through online classes, podcasts and videos. There are no applications, no admissions requirements, and no due dates. University of Alaska Anchorage students will also have the ability to participate in monthly on-campus events as well.
For additional information about the UAA chapter, contact Heidi Mannion at afham@uaa.alaska.edu or (907) 786-6924 or visit the UAA IHI Open School Web site.
