    Welcome to all our new members: @isabelho, @danfloyd, @blankahubena, @dylanwoodhead @georginahyslop, @davidparkerradford, @jay-roberts @martinhogan @clairehammill

    It’s really good to see this SIG continue to grow, if you’d like to introduce yourselves and let us know about your interest in QI, or AHPs that would be great. 

    We have an online event this Friday about Digital QI and then on October 10th “Improve One Thing” which is free to AHP QI members with the code AHP2024. 

    • Thank you. I am a Nurse- but support AHPs as well as running the Professional Advocacy S.I.G which is open to AHPS/Midwives and Nurses.
      I am a QI coach- and change champion. Very interested in connection and networking with others across multiple systems

      • Great to have you here- there’s no much more opportunity for impact and actually making change stick working across profession and systems.

        What does a change champion do?

      • Completely agree! Change champion is aspect of my job. Where I impact change- whether this is QI or cultural change. Through role modeling and or education/developing others to do so.

    • Hi Jo and All, I am a therapeutic radiographer in quality lead. Love the diversity of this group and look forward to contribute, learn and grow.

      • Welcome to the AHPs in QI special interest group Isabel.

        It’s only a few days since I saw you in one Q Zoom or other. Was it the QMS conversation between Tom and Jem, the Wales QMS visit, the Q Community quick networking? Can’t quite remember…

    • Yes Matthew and the QMS discussion is an interesting one, a very complex problem in healthcare. Even QMS itself is evolving and thinking how IMS and ISO7101 will continue to evolve and where to draw a line between these standards.
