Quality of Care and Patient Safety Modules

Bruyère’s Quality of Care and Patient Safety Modules address institution-wide clinical and patient safety priorities identified through the Medical Quality Management Subcommittee and the Medical Advisory Council, with the goal of fostering excellence in clinical care. The modules have been specifically designed for residents and staff physicians working at Bruyère and take into account special considerations related to our patient population.
