Quality Improvement encompasses a variety of different aspects of healthcare.


Quality Assurance
Patient satisfaction is just one aspect of Quality Assurance. Patients from the Rural Health Clinic, Outpatient Clinics, Rehabilitation, and the Emergency Room are randomly sent surveys. Areas in need of improvement are identified and areas that are excelling are commended.

Quality Improvement
KHS staff members are encouraged to identify processes throughout the facility that are not functioning to their full potential. Identifying these processes and improving them helps to make better use of time, money, and resources. This in turn can improve employee morale and patient care.

Corporate Compliance
Kimball Health Services exercises due diligence to ensure that all hospital employees and agents abide by Federal and State rules and regulations.

Risk Management
At Kimball Health Services, we attempt to identify sources of potential loss and put in place measures to eliminate or prevent occurrences.

The combination of all these areas helps to improve the quality of care that a patient can expect to receive when he/she is treated at Kimball Health Services.
