Quality
Northwest Health System is committed to quality. That's why we have joined the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s 100,000 Lives Campaign. The 100,000 Lives Campaign is the first-ever national campaign to promote saving a specified number of lives in hospitals by certain dates through the implementation of proven, evidence-based practices and procedures. As of June 14, 2006, hospitals in the Campaign have saved an estimated 122,300 lives.
Commitment to Excellence
