The Oregon Office of Rural Health makes honorary awards that recognize rural hospitals, clinics, and rural stakeholders in Oregon that demonstrate exceptional dedication to quality improvement.
Submissions should demonstrate successful implementation of strategies that have produced performance improvement related to patient safety, including, but not limited to:
- Improving access to care for vulnerable patients
- Reducing adverse events
- Addressing root causes of near miss, adverse, or sentinel events
- Using multidisciplinary teams to implement new strategies for emerging patient health needs
- Managing population health across the care continuum
Awardees will be recognized at the Oregon Rural Health Conference in central Oregon in the fall.
Eligible participants are rural Oregon hospitals, Rural Health Clinics, and rural community-based organizations.
Awards are honorary.
