Answer to Question 1

D
The Bassett Healthcare Quality Compass can be used to display the outcomes of unit-based
performance improvement programs such as patient satisfaction, cost, and utilization.

Answer to Question 2

A
Unit-based quality improvement programs need to track certain aspects of care that reflect the unit's
goals in order to ensure their compliance with regulatory and quality initiatives. These outcomes
should come from four domains: access, service, cost, and clinical quality. Process is not included, but
various processes will be used in the tracking and monitoring procedures.
