Program accomplishments
- Quality ImprovementTeamBirth NJ: The Quality Institute in partnership with Ariadne Labs, is implementing a shared decision-making initiative, called TeamBirth New Jersey, in every birthing hospital in the state. TeamBirth improves maternal and infant outcomes by addressing breakdowns in teamwork and communication in the delivery system. To date, we have implemented Team Birth in 26 hospitals and birthing centers in New Jersey and looking to expand further. This work is supported by New Jersey Department of Health. (Continued on Schedule O)The Leapfrog Group: The Quality Institute serves as the Regional Leader for The Leapfrog Group in New Jersey and New York. We provide support to hospitals and Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASC)who are completing the survey and encourage them to do so. In New Jersey, we have achieved the highest hospital participation rate in the country. The Leapfrog surveys are voluntary surveys that report on safety within a facility. The survey results are publicly reported in a consumer-friendly format and used by employers, consumers, and insurers when choosing a facility for services. Facilities use the survey process to improve their quality. Quality Events and Briefings: The Quality Institute holds quality improvement education sessions and releases regular Quality Briefings to drive quality improvement work. Quality improvement strategies can be used by employers, purchasers, payers, and patients to help inform decisions about where to seek care, leverage purchasing power, and increase transparency.Expenses $1,071,317

(Continued on Schedule O)The MAP provides a directional path forward in four critical ways to address New Jersey's maternal health crisis. By using the MAP, together we will make New Jersey the safest place for patients to give birth and raise children. Through our MAP work we host educational sessions that are open to the public and develop publicly available toolkits and educational materials. This work is supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Essential Jobs Essential Care: The Essential Jobs Essential Care Coalition, co-led by the Quality Institute and PHI, includes over 90 organizations and individuals across New Jersey that have come together to advocate for policy changes to support and grow the direct care workforce, including certified homemaker-home health aides (CHHAs), certified nursing assistants or nurse aides (CNAs), and direct support professionals (DSPs).
