Dear CLICK4HP Subscribers:

Has anyone had success employing quality indicators that, truly, capture
their organization's/team's/group's work in health promotion?

A quality indicator can be defined as: "...a specially selected measure
or attribute that may indicate and point to good or poor quality" (Ader,
M. et al., 2001). The literature cites a lack of methods for
systematically assessing the quality of health promotion work. Does
anyone have information, or experiences, that have helped/would help to
overcome this challenge?

I am, particularly, interested in practical examples from Ontarian or
Canadian Health Units, i.e. quality assurance tools, monthly statistic
forms, etc. I would, also, however, value related evidence-based
literature and/or international experiences, as well.

Thank you for your time and thoughtfulness.

Sincerely,

Jeri
