Eliminating Wasteful Practices

Post your definition of quality, and apply it to the work of W. Edwards Deming a quality theorist. Identify a practice problem that you have had some experience with as a practitioner and explain how eliminating  wasteful practices could have improved the experience. Include how your definition of quality applies to that experience.

State the practice problem in measurable terms and that reflect quality indicators. Include data that suggests a practice problem exists. Do not use anecdotal experiences or opinions.

Practice problem: to increase chlamydia screening in young women under 25.

Provide the rationale for selecting the problem.

(PS) I will continue to build on this practice problem in weeks to come.
