They treat completely different regimes of behavior. Quantum mechanics describes the behavior of systems of a small (relatively speaking) number of quantum particles.
Stat mech describes the behavior of systems of very large numbers of particles, using statistical descriptions of the particles as a system to say things about the extrinsic properties of the system (that is, the system described from an external perspective, rather than from the point of view of individual particles).
