Nebraska Healthcare Quality Forum
The fifth annual Nebraska Healthcare Quality Forum was held on May 13 at the Embassy Suites in downtown Lincoln. Over 375 healthcare providers statewide gathered in an effort to build partnerships to improve the quality of care for Nebraskans.
The Nebraska Healthcare Quality Forum, hosted by CIMRO of Nebraska, focused on successes in improving the quality of healthcare for a rapidly growing Medicare population, including initiatives that succeed in improving quality of care in nursing homes, homecare agencies, hospitals and physician offices. Over forty-five Nebraska healthcare professionals presented quality improvement initiatives, methods and data and activities demonstrating their efforts to improve healthcare practices. Presentation topics included electronic health records, MRSA, culture change, pain management, medication reconciliation, health information technology, patient safety and many others.
