The ASQ (American Society for Quality) provides many free Excel tools and templates for quality initiatives in nursing and healthcare. Examples include:
- FMEA (Failure mode & effects analysis)
- Fishbone diagram (Cause & effect)
- Flowchart template
- Gantt chart
- Pareto chart
- Histogram
- Scatter diagram
Each tool/template includes instructions, an example, information about the particular tool, and links to additional learning resources about quality. The quality tools and templates can be used for learning activities to supplement chapter 9 on spreadsheets, chapter 24 on administration, and chapter 25 on research. The tools reference The Quality Toolbox, Second Edition, ASQ Quality Press, 2004 by Nancy R. Tague.
