The "Education Quality Improvement (EQI)
Toolkit" training webinar was developed by a team of expert faculty at the
UAB School of Nursing to support baccalaureate nursing and midwifery education.
The toolkit offers a model for a Quality Improvement Plan that can be used by
educational programs in Latin American and Caribbean countries to address
universal health and primary health care within the framework of transformative
education and competency-based interprofessional collaborative
practice. Inherent in this work is the acknowledgment that nurses and
midwives have important leadership roles to play in health promotion, disease
prevention, and reducing morbidity and mortality throughout the Latin America
and Caribbean region.
