Quality Improvement

The department is enthusiastic about residents’ QI projects. Dr. St. John assists residents in designing projects they are passionate about. Each resident completes at least one QI project during residency. Resident projects have contributed to many improvements in patient care, education, clinic flow and efficiency. Recent examples include waiting room enhancements, creation of biologic smart sets for Epic, consult standardization, dermatopathology report standardization, sun protection, and improvements in departmental clinical photography.
