Quality is a set of
attributes of a service
Definitions
Quality is “conformance
to the norms of Input,
Process and Output”
Definitions
Quality is “conformance
to the requirements and
Customer Satisfaction”

• Quality Control
• Quality Assurance
• Total Quality
Management
• Continuous Quality
Assurance
Definitions (Contd..)
• Defining Quality means developing standards that is
statements regarding the inputs, processes, and outcome
standards that the healthcare delivery system must meet
in order for its population to achieve optimum health gains.
• Measuring Quality requires quantifying the current
level of compliance with expected standards.
• Improving Quality requires engaging in appropriate
methodologies to close the gap between current and
expected level of quality. It uses quality management tools
and principles to understand and address system
deficiencies and improve or redesign efficient and effective
healthcare processes.
• All three are elements of Quality Assurance
Definitions
OBVIOUSLY
Quality has three
perspectives:
Perspectives of Quality
– Technical
– Managerial
– Communication
Effectiveness
Ability to attain the greatest
improvements in health now
achievable by the best care
Effectiveness of Care
The degree to which desired results
(outcomes) of care are achieved
Examples:
− an HIV patient receives antiretroviral medication;
− A woman with prolonged second stage labor
receives a needed c-section;
− a pregnant woman who lives in an endemic
malaria area receives presumptive treatment of
malaria during pregnancy;
− a child with persistent fever after initial anti-
malaria treatment has a blood smear to confirm
the continued presence of malaria parasites.
Efficiency
4064
Safety
Examples:
- The use of protective clothing by staff working
with blood and body fluids;
- needles are disposed in a rigid contained and
either buried 4 feet deep or burned;
- patients with active TB are kept in a separate
ward;
- cleaning staff have access to gum boots to help
avoid slips and falls when washing the floors;
- fire and emergency exit routes are posted on the
walls.
