Donabedian Model

The Donabedian model is a framework used to assess healthcare quality by focusing on three key components: Structure, Process, and Outcomes. **Structure** refers to the facilities, equipment, and staff involved in delivering care. **Process** encompasses the actions taken during patient care, including diagnosis and treatment methods. **Outcomes** relate to the results of care, such as patient health improvements and satisfaction. By evaluating these components, healthcare providers can identify strengths and areas for improvement, ultimately enhancing the quality of care delivered to patients.
