Letter to the Editor: Professionalism—The Role of Quality Improvement

نویسنده

  • Kieran Walsh
چکیده

In traditional medical curricula, quality improvement used to receive only passing mention. However, in modern curricula quality improvement is integrated with other clinical and non-clinical subjects that professionals must learn. No professional’s practice can be perfect—so anything that can help all professionals improve their practice should also be able to help them with their professionalism. The advantage of stressing the importance of quality improvement is that it is tangible and practical. By contrast, at times the concept of professionalism can appear esoteric or academic. Quality improvement gives the professional something to actually work on—something that should improve them as professionals and at the same time improve outcomes for their patients.
