- Check out the Arizona’s Health Status: Winnable Battles
presentation by Will Humble, Director, ADHS - ADHS has just received an award to participate in the National Quality Improvement (QI) Demonstration Initiative.
The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) is committed to achieving accreditation through the voluntary Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB). The accreditation process focuses on improving public health services and outcomes by implementing Quality Improvement (QI) practices. In response to the accreditation standards, ADHS created the Managing for Excellence Program (MEP) to concentrate on the three accreditation prerequisites: a State Health Assessment, Strategic Planning, and a State Health Improvement Plan (SHIP). All of these efforts are designed to strengthen the infrastructure of the department.
