Quality Improvement Specialist

Our team members are the heart of what makes us better.

At Hackensack Meridian Health we help our patients live better, healthier lives — and we help one another to succeed. With a culture rooted in connection and collaboration, our employees are team members. Here, competitive benefits are just the beginning. It’s also about how we support one another and how we show up for our community.

Together, we keep getting better - advancing our mission to transform healthcare and serve as a leader of positive change.

The Quality Improvement Specialist acts in conjunction with the Regional Chief Quality & Safety Officer, HMH Vice President Clinical & Nursing Quality, HMH Patient Safety Officer and local Director of Patient Safety & Quality to provide leadership for quality & safety improvement initiatives. The Quality Improvement Specialist collaborates with HMH initiative-focused groups, clinical transformation services and quality councils to achieve transformational and sustainable outcome improvements using project/program management, process and system mapping, reliability science data driven strategies, evidence based best practices and quality improvement strategies. These components, along with knowledge and experience of front-line clinical operations, will provide structure and oversight to improve quality and patient safety. The identification, planning and execution of quality improvement and safety projects are necessary in order to deliver successful sustainable results and build a strong and sustainable culture of safety & quality for patients and team members.
