The Armstrong Institute's goal is to eliminate preventable harm to patients and to achieve the best patient outcomes at the lowest cost possible, and then to share knowledge of how to achieve this goal with the world. We oversee, coordinate and support patient safety and healthcare improvement efforts across Johns Hopkins' integrated health care system.
