Happy to share that our team @QuEST_Program's work on equity-focused #qualityimprovement interventions in medicine is now online @BMJ_Qual_Saf! Very thankful for the mentorship and support from QI scholars @THP_hospital @SharfuddinNazia & @UHN @Tdbhate https://t.co/o3nHtAaJ3Y

Proud of this team's work in advancing our understanding of QI as it intersects with health equity. Our scoping review demonstrated a paucity of equity focused QI interventions & identified institutional leadership & championship + pt partnership key to success.

@gabefabreau @UCalgary Congrats!! So well deserved.

Farah Khan not only displays exceptional leadership in her role as THP’s Senior Vice President of Patient Care Services, but she is also breaking barriers, highlighting that everyone deserves a seat at the table.

Giving a candid account of her journey to leadership, Farah’s story serves as an inspiration to health care professionals everywhere as she outlines the road it took as a Muslim woman to get where she is and why it’s more important than ever to bring diversity to the boardroom.

Read her story in her words: https://t.co/F9ccWStOws

It takes only an hour of rounding on the General Internal Medicine wards to realize that for physicians to provide high-quality health care, we must understand the structural/social determinants of health in addition to knowing the latest expert guidelines for our areas of practice.
