Book Synopsis An Introduction to Quality Assurance in Health Care by : Avedis Donabedian
Download or read book An Introduction to Quality Assurance in Health Care written by Avedis Donabedian and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-12-26 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Avedis Donabedian's name is synonymous with quality of medical care. He unraveled the mystery behind the concept by defining it in clear operational terms and provided detailed blueprints for both its measurement(known as quality assessment) and its improvement(known as quality assurance). Many before him claimed that quality couldn't be defined in concrete objective terms. He demonstrated that quality is an attribte of a system which he called structure, a set of organized activities whihc he called process, and an outcome which results from both. In this book Donabedian tells the full story of quality assessment and assurance in simple, clear terms. He defines the meaning of quality, explicates its components, and provides clear and systematic guides to its assessment and enhancement. His style is lucid, succinct, systematic and yet personal, almost conversational.

The first part of the book deals with the concept of quality in nursing and with methods of evaluating, improving and assuring quality. The approach is unit-based and practitioner-led, and the learning outcomes and study activities given in the text can be used to stimulate reflection and discussion when the book is used in a teaching situation. The second part illustrates the methods in practical use through a series of factual experiences. These examples show how groups can evaluate nursing practice by using a dynamic approach, setting standards and evaluating criteria. They are included here to demonstrate how programmes of quality assurance can be applied to everyday working situations.
