Background on the IHI Fellowship Program

Improving health care is IHI's mission, its promise, and its daily work. IHI aims to improve the lives of patients, the health of communities, and the joy of the health care workforce by focusing on an ambitious set of goals adapted from the Institute of Medicine’s six improvement aims for the health care system: care that is safe, timely, effective, efficient, equitable, and patient-centered.

IHI works with health professionals throughout the world to accelerate the measurable and continual progress of health care systems toward these bold objectives, leading to breakthrough improvements that are truly meaningful in the lives of patients.

IHI has extensive experience providing effective, in-depth professional development for health care leaders, clinicians, and managers through our fellowship programs. The vast majority of IHI Fellows consider their fellowship experience transformative for them, both personally and professionally.

IHI Fellowship alumni have gone on to lead organizational, national, and international work to improve care for patients and their families. Increasingly, this cadre of leaders is shaping the discussion around health and health care in the UK, the US, and beyond.

We believe this is an area where investment by leading health care organizations would yield dramatic results in terms of increased leadership and improvement capacity to benefit the populations they serve.

IHI Fellowship Alumni

The IHI Fellowship Alumni Network is a growing group of committed health care leaders who have the shared experience of the IHI Fellowship and who continue to offer mutual support in the hard work of improving care for patients. Alumni come together for networking and continued connection with IHI twice a year, at the National Forum in the US and the International Forum in Europe. Alumni have started a tradition of organizing an annual all-alumni meeting to come together to solve problems and further explore their aims as a group.

Fellows alumni are connected with each other and with current fellows via an active listserv. Fellows use the listserv to prompt discussion on compelling topics, gather input on problems they are encountering with their work, and to plan for alumni meetings and events.

Past fellows include a diverse group of health care professionals, as seen below. Each brings a different skill set, educational background, and work experience.
