Hi all,
I just wanted to share with you that Greener AHP week will take place from Monday 22nd-Friday 26th April.

- share projects and ideas for AHPs to get involved

Good morning QI folk,
I’ve had a question from someone who is planning to implement a change in clinical practice who would like to make it a better project by using QI methods.
Where’s are good places to start, and what resources would you recommend?
Thanks for your help!
Jo

I’d advise them to get in touch with their service or quality improvement team and ask them for some support.
-
Yes! They are likely to help with sharing results as well.
And if there’s not a QI team available?
-
-
My first question will be if they have any QI training to start with. If so, I will start from having a baseline measurement of specific quality (safety, effectiveness, efficiency, equity, person-centredness and sustainability) that they are trying to improve. I will then move on to appreciative enquiry with the clinical team and patients, process…Read more

Hi Jo,
They may be interested to take a look at our open access SusQI resources – https://www.susqi.org/
There is a step by step guide (4 steps – set goals, study the system, design improvement and measure impact) with resources for each section. Consideration across the sustainable value equation (clinical, financial, social and environmental…Read more-
This is a great website, thanks for sharing. Are you involved with Greener AHPs week in April? Looks like lots of crossover with what SusQI does.

Hi Jo,
I will get in touch with the QI team if the hospital has one, they are very good, at least where I work there is a QI team.
Another option could be to meet with key stakeholders and find a common problem that you want to focus on and do a brainstorming with them.
Once you know what the problem is and what you want to change, it will be much…Read more-
Yes, you should say you won an award! Well done.
But clearly we are going to be interested in what you won the award for- would you like to share in a blog post? Or just tell us a bit more about it here.

Hi Jo, yes I can do that or maybe I can share a link with my project, so I don’t have to type a lot :D. 😉

Hi Rachel,
Welcome to this group, great to have you join. Have you also followed us on X/twitter @AHPQI?
It would be great for the group if you could introduce yourself- are you new to QI or has this been something you’ve been doing for a while?

Did you stumble across anything else interesting once you were logged in? I came across liberating structures from a pop up on here and now use elements of it all the time.
