“How would you design a great hospital quality improvement program?” A distinguished gentleman who looks to be in his 60s is asking the question. He and I are sitting across from each other at the end of a long, dark mahogany conference table. I don’t remember how I came to be here. I probably look a bit confused. “John. Tell me… How would you do that?” […]

Why the Hospital Pharmacy Director Should Report to the Senior Physician Executive

2017-02-06T13:21:12-06:00

Each hospital CEO must determine which departments should logically report to each senior executive. Historically, the vice president for medical affairs or chief medical officer was hired to address the medical staff and its governance, continuing medical education and quality improvement.

These are practices based on reports of medication errors from hospitals across the country. When the ISMP identifies a trend, it seeks the root causes.
