SDAHO Celebrates National Healthcare Quality Week: Oct. 19-25, 2025

The South Dakota Association of Healthcare Organizations (SDAHO) is celebrating National Healthcare Quality Week, October 19-25, 2025, by lifting all of our amazing health care professionals.

Healthcare Quality Week (HQW) was created as a dedicated time to honor the critical role of Quality within healthcare and raise awareness of the enormous impact professionals working in Quality have in their organizations, their communities, and across healthcare

Through our collective efforts – NAHQ and you – healthcare Quality is gaining recognition as a driver of healthcare excellence, reduced costs, and improved care. What you do makes a difference and it’s getting noticed. Now is the time to show your pride in what you do and what you care about.

We appreciate all you do for Healthcare Quality, so enjoy your week. You deserve it!
