This project will develop a program to help patients, families, and health professionals in the hospital support one another to improve quality and safety. To accomplish these goals, patients and families must be able to express what they want from their hospital care and how they want to be involved and then effectively communicate this information with health professionals. Conversely, health professionals must be able to understand what patients want to do and what is appropriate for them to do and feel that they have the system supports and tools to facilitate these actions.
To address this issue and help fulfill AHRQ's mission of health care quality improvement, AHRQ will develop a set of interventions and materials, entitled the Guide to Patient and Family Engagement in Health Care Quality and Safety in the Hospital Setting ("the Guide"), for use by patients, their family members, health care professionals, and hospital leaders to foster patient and family engagement around the issues of hospital safety and quality.
