Welcome to HiQuiPs, or as we like to pronounce it, “Hiccups”. HiQuiPs is a free open access medical education (FOAMed) series that covers a wide array of topics within the intertwined fields of Health Informatics, Quality Improvement, and Patient Safety. Our goal is to remove any hiccups from your workflow! We began with emergency departments as the setting to explore concepts that are transferable to all healthcare settings. We hope to disseminate this knowledge to help infuse our healthcare settings with a culture of high quality, safe, and technologically advanced care.
