Texas Quality Initiative annual meeting set for June 30

The Texas Quality Initiative’s (TQI) 5th Annual Meeting is set for June 30 but with a twist – an identical event will take place at two different locations this year. A Dallas breakfast meeting is set for The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano in the first floor auditorium. Breakfast will be served at 7:30 a.m. followed by the meeting from 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

A Fort Worth dinner meeting is scheduled for Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Fort Worth in the Heart Center classrooms on the first floor. This event starts at 5:00 p.m. followed by the meeting from 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Both events feature Dr. Merlyn Sayers, president/CEO of Carter BloodCare, as the keynote speaker.

The TQI would like you to pick one of the two meetings that best fits your schedule. The target audience is service line administrators, executive staff, surgeons, cardiologists, data managers and quality improvement professionals.

TQI began in 2012 as a North Texas cardiovascular surgery collaborative. Today, there are 28 participating hospitals from five healthcare systems. TQI leaders share knowledge with a goal of improving outcomes and patient safety within their own programs.
