Quality and Patient Safety

About Quality and Patient Safety

Sacramento-based Hospital Quality Institute (HQI) is the quality and patient safety arm of HASC, the California Hospital Association (CHA) and the Regional Associations.

CHA founded HQI in 2013, and since then it has informed and educated on best practices. The institute also oversees and coordinates the Collaborative Health Care Patient Safety Organization (CHPSO).

A number of HASC-led quality and patient safety initiatives have also been completed in recent years. Examples are below.

For more information on HQI, visit www.hqinstitute.org, or contact HQI President Robert Imhoff at (916) 552-7600 or [email protected].
