HQSC & UWNURF cordially invites you to join us for our first Joint Conference: Applying Quality Improvement Principles to Healthcare Equity 2018. The goal of this meeting is to encourage interdisciplinary interaction of trainees interested in Healthcare Equity and QI, facilitate brainstorming of QI solutions and encourage the development of trainee-led projects to address Healthcare Equity within the UW system.
Pre-reading: In preparation for this meeting, Dr. Flum suggested two great materials to review with the aim to have a more impactful session. We are attaching the UW Medicine blueprint (http://cedi-web01.s.uw.edu/wp-content/uploads/UW-Medicine-Healthcare-Equity-Blueprint-05-01-17.pdf) with information regarding UW’s healthcare equity vision and strategies. In addition, please watch this well-researched and informative video (https://youtu.be/IfYRzxeMdGs) that highlights the history of racism in healthcare.
Those who may be interested in attending include:
