Overview
It’s no secret that a well-rounded and strategic approach to providing healthcare includes providing treatment for health conditions while trying to prevent health issues that can be avoided. The old adage “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” is still just as valid and wise today. The IHI Triple aim addresses care, public health, and cost containment. Many organizations have added a fourth aim to address how to take care of healthcare workers specifically. A fourth aim may be named differently, but the fourth usually focuses on taking care of those who take care of others. Some may refer to the fourth as achieving joy, others as improving work-life balance, still others as overall well-being. Regardless, a quadruple aim and an emphasis on the factors in our environments that can improve health equip us with a strategic focus on improving the health of care organizations, healthcare workers, and the public.

- Describe the social determinants of health
