Performance & Quality Improvement

Since 1967, The Bair Foundation has been committed to building strong children, strong families and strong communities.

It is the goal of the Bair Foundation to bring excellence in managing service delivery to those entrusted into our care. It is with this aspiration that we work toward the implementation of a performance and quality improvement plan that invests in all participants and processes to make a quality organization even better. With best practice always in the forefront of the decision making process, The Bair Foundation strives to continuously improve our overall performance and quality.

Through Performance and Quality Improvement (PQI) process,The Bair Foundation tracks and monitors the improvement of performance measures that have been specifically planned for each program. These performance measures are monitored in the local office on a weekly basis to ensure the achievement of each outcome.

As a result, quarterly outcomes are tabulated and progress noted within the performance measured detailed in the three core concept areas:

Growth
Compliance
Quality of care
