Feedback Loops in Healthcare

           In the healthcare industry, utilization's of feedback loops are useful in optimizing healthcare teams such as quality circles or QCC groups to accomplish a series of objectives (Institute of Medicine, 2012). Since new developments are frequent in healthcare, it is important to address any gaps in knowledge and connect different information in order to achieve a common goal. Feedback loops is an effective method used to support different healthcare teams and enable continuous improvement strategies and other tools to guide the direction of an organization (Institute of Medicine, 2012).

          When leaders use effective feedback loops, it enables team members to communicate with one another and share information at all times. Under these terms, a healthcare organization is more inclined to develop processes that will aim to facilitate growth of a team on a personal or professional level (Institute of Medicine, 2012). Furthermore, once a healthcare team has reached this maturity level, then feedback loops would be more effective and assist the entire healthcare organization.
