76 Abstracts Have Been Accepted

Thank you for submitting your ideas to the 2018 Quality & Safety Summit! This year, we have accepted 64 posters (26 from Stream 1, and 38 from Steam 2) and 12 fishbowl presentations (6 from each stream).

Stream 1: Transformation through Innovation

This is for you rebels out there! Are you trying something completely new or different in your area; going boldly where no person has gone before? This stream is for you - we want to hear your radical ideas and emerging ways of how to improve care. You might only have limited results that your idea is on the right track, but we want to hear how you are breaking new ground, how you made it happen and what you believe is possible for the future! The summit is an opportunity to seek input, inspire collaboration, and motivate action at an early stage in your project.

The definition of innovation that we are hoping to showcase is: New ideas that oppose and contradict our accepted ways of delivering health care services.

Stream 2: Successful Quality Improvement Projects

If you have implemented a successful quality improvement project and want to show it off, this is the category for you! We want to hear about your evidence-based improvement projects for delivering healthcare services and advancing a culture of patient and family centered care. Your journey doesn’t necessarily need to be complete – just show us what you’ve done so far and what could be possible in the future.
