I plan on using the CAHPS measures to address a QI project at the Mayo Clinic located in Jacksonville, FL to address patient care concerns, as the current CAHPS scores need to be improved. I will present ideas and methods using Six Sigma. I will include some methods on my poster related to Six Sigma. I need to further explore the different Six Sigma tool options, but I will include one of them as my image/table/illustration on the poster. I have not decided on my SMART goal, yet, for my QI project. I need to research some best practices, but I plan on including the best practices as a guide for my poster.
