Project Overview: Deschutes County Health Services (DCHS) is located in central Oregan and serves a primarily rural population along with three cities. DCHS was a beta test site for the Public Health Accreditation Board’s (PHAB) voluntary national accreditation program in 2010. As part of the beta test process, sites completed a QI project to address an area identified through their self-assessment. DCHS’s goal was to improve immunization data entry timeliness in clinics.
