Addressing health disparities is critical to increasing care quality and advancing patient safety. However, when it comes to implementing health equity initiatives, many hospitals are either in the beginning stages or are not sure where to begin.
To address this challenge, Health Quality Innovators (HQI) created the Best Practices in Health Equity: Advice from Peer Hospitals guide. This resource features snippets from peer hospitals explaining the steps they took toward health equity at their own institutions. Hospitals can use this resource to brainstorm ideas to get started or to move forward with implementing health equity initiatives.
