Calling all UW residents and fellows!
We are soon launching the QI Ambassadors Program for the 2024-2025 academic year!
Our goal is to connect trainees to the extensive QI work already underway at each of our clinical sites. We recognize the importance of mentorship and aim to foster an environment for networking and building careers in systems leadership. Email uwhqsc@uw.edu if you have questions!

About Us
The University of Washington Housestaff Quality & Safety Committee (HQSC) is a trainee-led organization chartered under UW Graduate Medical Education and the UW Patient Safety & Quality Coordinating Committee focused on developing future clinician leaders dedicated to improving patient care through housestaff education, multidisciplinary collaboration, and engagement in quality and safety.
Formed in 2011, HQSC membership today boasts more than 80 residents and fellows representing 37 medical and surgical specialties. The group meets throughout the year to learn improvement methodology, leadership skills, and change management strategies. In addition to developing and engaging future clinician leaders in healthcare quality and safety, the HQSC provides a housestaff perspective on these important matters to committees across UW Medicine.
