    Quality Improvement (QI) is the process of getting better. In athletic training we have many systems and processes in which we work in and deliver patient care through. The ability for an athletic trainer to identify, evaluate, and enact change in a system or process is a critical skill to improve the delivery of care in a safe, timely, effective, efficient, equitable, and patient centered manner. This presentation will identify the origins and components of QI in healthcare, discuss the Model For Improvement as a framework by which athletic trainers can implement QI into the systems and processes in their local clinical practice, and provide relevant examples of how the QI process can be implemented within athletic training clinical practice.
