Every healthcare organization is on its own unique journey, but each one needs a road map to a common destination—quality. Improving the quality of care is an essential strategy for surviving—and thriving—in today’s demanding healthcare environment.





The Healthcare Quality Book: Vision, Strategy, and Tools provides the framework, strategies, and practical tactics that all healthcare leaders need as they learn, implement, and manage quality improvement efforts. With chapters by a group of leading contributors with significant expertise and breadth of experience, the book offers a detailed exploration of the components of quality, while incorporating techniques to continuously improve and transform healthcare organizations.





The book is organized into four parts. Part I establishes the foundation for healthcare quality and examines the history of the quality movement. Part II speaks in depth about tools, measures, and their applications in the pursuit of quality. Part III focuses on the intersection of leadership and culture—which is central to the pursuit of quality and safety. Part IV concludes the book with a series of chapters that discuss many of the emerging trends that are shaping the contemporary quality landscape.



Building on the success of the first three editions, this new edition has been significantly redeveloped and reimagined, with content strategically refined to focus on what is most essential for healthcare managers. It features new and expanded information on:


Community health quality improvementQuality measures and leadershipProvider profiling and registriesCulture-of-safety and high-reliability organizingHealth information technology
The Healthcare Quality Book is designed to be both an instructional guide and a conversation starter for all students of healthcare quality—all healthcare professionals, current and future.

Never thought about renting a book until this time. The rental period was perfectly matched to my course's quarter schedule and the return was fast and easy through my local UPS drop shipping center. This is a must-do unless you really want the book for your personal library.

2.0 out of 5 stars Product issue
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2022
Verified Purchase
This was my second book. The book was sold as brand new, but it has scratches on the cover and what looked like streaks of glue on the front cover. That wiped off well, but the book itself is not put together properly. When I opened it up the front cover, and the side of the book came completely unbound. The pages were still glued but turning the first page, you could tell that the pages would also end up separated.

1.0 out of 5 stars As bad as the 3rd edition
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2021

Just as boring as the 3rd edition. Does not matter that the authors were switched up. If you want to torture a student, make them buy this book. At least it speaks to there willingness to walk over flaming coals for patients and other subordinates.
