IHI Open School – Education in Quality and Patient Safety Beyond the Classroom
What a great idea!
The Institute for Healthcare Improvement is offering free online education in skills like quality improvement, patient safety, teamwork, leadership, and patient-centered care.
The IHI Open School for Health Professions is an interprofessional educational community that gives students the skills to become change agents in health care improvement. Most health-centered curriculum’s barely touch on these topics.
There are no fees, no applications, no admissions requirements, and no due dates. Each course takes about one hour to complete.
The current course catalog includes
- Fundamentals of Quality Improvement
- Fundamentals of Patient Safety
- The Model for Improvement, Your Engine for Change
- Human Factors and Safety
- Measuring for Improvement
- Teamwork and Communication
The IHI Open School for Health Professions is funded by support fromthe Rx Foundation, the Kaiser Permanente Community Benefit and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. IHI welcomes funding and other support from a wide array of interested organizations and individuals.
