Abstract
Although many hospitals have begun the long and difficult process of adapting to the concepts of total quality management, few have reported efforts to apply total quality management to a medical residency. We report here the initial results of the Western Pennsylvania Hospital's efforts, as part of the hospital's conversion of its management structure to total quality management.Keywords
