Hi I am looking for some help/ guidance/support.

We are undertaking a small pilot in a GP Practice in City and Hackney to test our approach to anticipatory care and looking for a part time QI Coach (0.5 days a week for 3 months) to help support this small project.

Background to City and Hackney Neighbourhoods – Eight neighbourhood areas have been created in City and Hackney formed as far as possible around natural communities based on GP registered lists and these neighbourhood areas serve populations of between 30,000 to 50,000 residents.
Neighbourhoods is our key transformation programme that is redesigning the way we deliver community services across City and Hackney. Over the last few years the programme has been funding transformation projects that has been redesigning individual services, including services such as adult community nursing, mental health and adult community therapies. We want to transform the way that we provide care and work with/listen to our local population by working differently and believe that at the highest level we will improve health outcomes for the City and Hackney population by working in neighbourhoods.

QI Coach – We are looking for a trained QI coach to assist us with a project that is part of the national ageing well agenda (anticipatory care). The QI Coach will provide coaching to the project team, e.g. support the project team in using QI methodology, including PDSA cycles and data over time and teach and explain use of QI tools and methods.

If you know of anyone, who may be interested in helping us with this project, please contact me and I will share some more information with them. My email address is melanie.strachan@nhs.net

Thank you, Melanie
