Quality Improvement: Banners Health Center Phoenix Problem Overview At the moment, Banners Health Center Phoenix is experiencing a rise in skill-oriented medical mistakes in the diagnostic, treatment-based, and preventative categories. Diagnostic medical mistakes encountered include incorrect and late diagnosis, failing to complete needed tests, failing to use precise criteria for therapy, and failing to respond to test results. Therapy errors include mistakes in medical procedures, errors caused while giving treatment, pharmaceutical errors, drug delays, and incorrect patient care. The lack of preventative therapies provision and poor evaluation and follow-up are the errors noticed in the preventive aspect of medical services. Medical checks, colonoscopies, and mammography screenings were limited in provision services, and these preventative therapies provide procedures to avoid the reoccurrence of medical infections or injuries. The rationale for Quality Improvement in the Health Organization Diagnostic health mistakes can significantly influence a patient’s treatment plan and the road to recovery. Obtaining a delayed or incorrect diagnosis can significantly hamper a patient’s recovery and, in some cases, lose their lives if they. In the United States alone, an estimated 30,000 to 75,000 individuals die due to diagnostic errors, and many more suffer severe impairment (Backhouse & Ogunlayi, 2020). To avoid such losses, Banner Health must increase the quality of its diagnostic processes. Efficient diagnosis boosts the efficacy of therapy and helps the infected patient’s hypothesis event long-term health consequences. Patients who become undiagnosed can inadvertently spread infections to others. Thus, early detection can assist in preventing and controlling an outbreak. Backhouse and Ogunlayi add that (2020) physicians and therapists use a diagnosis to provide the patient with treatment options and potential health concerns. As a result, quality in diagnosis is a critical element of patient recovery.            Most treatment mistakes are clear because improper therapies have immediate and visible adverse effects. When patients are prescribed to take a drug to which they are allergic, which is vividly documented in their medical records, they experience unwanted body reactions. Such an error may cause further damage (Singh et al., 2019). Patients may endure unfavorable responses due to the hospital’s neglect in treatment, and the reactions might have moderate or severe repercussions. As a result, it is critical to verify that treatment is correct and appropriate for the diagnosis. Preventative medicine mistakes harm patients because doctors cannot recognize illnesses before they manifest signs and symptoms. For instance, doctors who do not prescribe mammographic screening frequently for primary breast cancer prevention have higher proportions of breast cancer diagnosis at later stages (Singh et al., 2019). Such limitations in prevention lead to more diagnoses in more patients and may cause congestion ...
