AMA develops toolkit for 100K Lives

As a strategic partner in the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s (IHI) 100,000 Lives Campaign, the American Medical Association (AMA) recently launched two online toolkits to encourage physicians to join the initiative. More than 2,800 hospitals already are participating.

The "Making Strides in Safety" program (www.ama-assn.org/go/makingstrides) stresses that working as a team with support from hospital administration, medical staff, executives, and other personnel is key to success.

The 100,000 Lives Campaign offers physicians the opportunity to take the lead in improving hospital care for patients on a community and national level.
