The John M. Eisenberg Patient Safety and Quality Awards were launched in 2002 by the Joint Commission and the NQF in memory of the highly respected national leader in healthcare quality, Dr. John M. Eisenberg, who dedicated his career to ensuring that healthcare is based on a strong foundation of research and that the services provided reflect the needs and perspectives of patients. The awards, given annually, recognize individuals and healthcare organizations that have made significant contributions to improving patient safety.
The 2006 Awards will be presented in conjunction with the National Quality Forum’s Annual Membership Meeting October 12 and 13 in Washington, DC.
