SUMMARY:Quality Management Theory
DESCRIPTION:Register early and save! Please register early and reserve
  your place by providing payment to avoid an additional $25 fee requir
 ed for registrations given within two (2) weeks of the course.\nQualit
 y management (QM) is of great importance for hospital and clinic-based
  radiology departments accredited through the Joint Commission on Accr
 editation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). It is also an important
  part of mammography and compliance with the Mammography Quality Stand
 ards Act (MQSA). QM requires a working knowledge of the quality improv
 ement (QI) process and tools, quality control (QC), equipment testing 
 and regulatory guidelines. You will learn the basics of the quality ma
 nagement process from the theoretical to practical application. A comb
 ination of experts will introduce you to the fundamentals of QM. You w
 ill learn from the pros how QM has evolved and how QI has changed. You
  will receive “hands-on” application in designing QI monitors for 
 your facility. You will learn how a well-designed QM program will impr
 ove imaging quality and patient care.  In addition to the QC testing r
 eview, you will participate in a field trip to perform a portion of th
 e QC tests listed in the ARRT QM clinical competencies required for th
 e advanced level QM examination. All students will progress through th
 e application phase of training at their own rate.  Advanced Health ca
 n provide the opportunity to meet some of the clinical competency requ
 irements for the ARRT advanced level exam for quality management, but 
 cannot guarantee the competency can be met. The performance of each co
 mpetency is dependent upon the participant’s individual skill level.
