Baldrige Criteria Workshop for Healthcare
Executives
Introduction
With the national emphasis on improving the
quality and safety of patient care today, health care institutions
continue to promote systems of evaluation that will identify and improve
organizational performance practices, capabilities, and results. The
Malcolm Baldrige Healthcare Criteria for Performance Excellence (BCPE) are
designed to help organizations use an integrated approach to
organizational performance management that results in:
 |
Delivery of
ever-improving value to patients and other customers, contributing
to improved health care quality; |
 |
Improvement
of overall organizational effectiveness and capabilities as a health
care provider; and |

and personal learning. |
The application of BCPE has a valuable
focus on quality and performance improvement whether or not the
organization applies for the prestigious National Quality Award.
