Our Mission

IHI Open School UBC Chapter provides students and professionals the opportunity of becoming active leaders in improving the quality of care available within their community. We provide training and practical opportunities for students to gain skills in quality improvement so they are prepared to be leaders in their community.  Healthcare touches everyone, and the necessary improvements and solutions will be the result of everyone’s participation and effort. (more info)
