The benefits for the professional working within a quality culture
are manifold, but even more important, the patient is the final
arbiter of quality care. Therefore patient centred aspects of
treatment are focused upon in this manual. A quality manual
intended for European use has to respect the national regulations
and European diversity, and therefore needs to be flexible. The
EOQM has been structured according to the treatment of the
individual patient, which is what all professionals have in common,
and which also is the most important target for quality improvement
in orthodontic practice. The EOQM is primarily designed as a
stimulus for the orthodontic professional to assess and improve the
quality of orthodontic care. A Quality Improvement System (QIS)
provides support for starting and maintaining activities. The
manual provides tools to systematically assess and develop
quality-related actions at individual (patient) treatment level and
practice level. A systematic and comprehensive description of the
treatment process is essential in order to provide a basis for
establishing a QIS. Implementing a QIS will influence the provision
of orthodontic care by: demonstrating the potentials for
development of the organizational elements of orthodontics; and
planning and integrating systematic activities to monitor and
improve treatment at the practical level and the patient-related
level. Orthodontic treatment process is the central element in this
manual. The route taken by an individual patient is described step
by step: flowcharts describe the orthodontic treatment of the
individual patient step by step; guidelines indicate what the
professional should do at the various steps in order to follow the
generally accepted objectives of orthodontics as described in the
policy The EOQM provides the orthodontic professional with a model
for incorporating quality improvement into daily practice, which is
based on European orthodontic consensus and current principles of
quality in health care. It can be incorporated in the quality
initiatives that are already being developed nationally and vice
versa.
