Other negatives: our union atti- tude and culture as well as our mis- guided tax policies (Michigan taxes are not high, in total, compared with those in California and Massa- chusetts, just very misguided). Well-spent tax dollars can be a plus in attracting businesses, as they are in California and Massachusetts.

  • About the Summit
    About the Summit The Michigan Summit on Quality Improvement, Patient Safety & Wellness is a statewide program that brings together medical care providers to focus on promotion of patient safety and enhancement of quality of patient care, along with caregiver wellness. The Summit supports Section VI of the American Conference on Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Common Program Requirements. The requirements emphasize that all physicians share responsibility for promoting patient safety and enhancing quality of patient care. As a result, Graduate medical education training programs must prepare residents to provide clinical care with continuous focus on the safety, individual needs, and humanity of their patients. In addition, ACGME has recognized that the psychological, emotional, and physical well-being of caregivers is critical in the development of competent, caring, and resilient physicians. Quality Improvement involves systematic and continuous actions that lead to measurable improvement in health care services and the well-being of targeted patient populations. To make improvements, organizations need to understand their own delivery system and key processes. The Michigan Summit on Quality Improvement, Patient Safety & Wellness is designed to focus on the initial steps of quality improvement by highlighting the importance of residents and fellows in the process of identifying areas of improvement. This Summit further aids health care systems by providing the tools to effectively study the targeted areas of improvement. Wellness addresses the well-being of the healthcare delivery team: from residents, fellows, attending physicians, physician assistants, nurses, aides, and graduate medical education program directors. The goal is to help caregivers establish work-life balance so that they can be effective caregivers for their patients.
