View Bridgepoint's Quality Improvement Plan
|
|
01/04/2011
|
One of the ways that the Excellent Care for All Act is helping hospitals meet our community’s expectations regarding quality, patient safety and accountability is through the public reporting of Quality Improvement Plans (QIP). Bridgepoint places the highest priority on patient safety and the quality of care and services it delivers for patients with complex, chronic illness and disability.
Quality Improvement Plans provide a meaningful way for Bridgepoint Health to clearly articulate our accountability to our community, patients and staff. Our QIP is focused on creating a positive patient experience and delivering high quality health care.

Complex chronic illness, and not age, is the biggest drain on Canada’s health care system according to a recently published report from the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI).
