The Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, Inc. (AAAHC) is a national leader in accrediting over 3,800 organizations in a wide variety of ambulatory health care settings. The AAAHC’s Institute for Quality Improvement awards the activities of ambulatory health care providers who demonstrate excellence in identifying areas for quality improvement and designing interventions that have led to positive outcomes.
To be considered for this award, a facility would have completed a quality improvement study with resulting interventions that led to positive outcomes. A study of this magnitude spanned over a two year period and required a strong team approach between the CHS physicians, nurse practitioners and nursing staff. This was an educational experience for both the nursing and provider teams and raised an awareness of the disease status and control. Ultimately the patient is the recipient of the caregiver’s awareness which may help the patient manage their asthma in a more effective manner. This leads to a healthier student population and their academic success.
