    the difference between the two types of Quality Improvement (QI)? – NO – is there more than one?

    the difference between Quality Improvement (QI) and Continuous Improvement (CI)? – in a way, QI is done just before every audit visit. CI is never finished.

    Thanks Hilda, I followed the link and saw the RAS video, and am looking at the workbook you and team created.
    It’s the second time in a few days that looking at the local and acting ‘here and now’ has been referred to. Here, and by a 91yo still strong gentleman I met a few years ago. His stories and rollercoaster history and his fraternal outlook,…Read more

    “I see the big picture but look at what is the 15% in my control, that can help people and the planet suffer less”
    thanks Hilda. I get swamped by the dread of lack/loss of control – it is a good post and point.
    Objectivity vs subjectivity – individual vs communal – all a choice. Fairness and all outlooks evolve.

    this cartoon did work well for me! thanks Tom.

  • Does it ring a distant alarm bell that the ‘artificial intelligence’ industry has taken up ‘ethics programs’ with what might be described as ‘a vengeance’? This metaphor succinctly describes my concerns growing for a balanced approach to ethics as may or may not be applied to any industry (within the competitive framework we call ‘market…Read more

    • Interesting point, is the conversation then less about ‘ethics’……… rules of conduct and instead about morals ‘Principles or habits relating to right or wrong conduct, based on an individual’s own compass of right and wrong.’ but then we get into the debate about each individuals’ moral compass and what we each see as right or wrong? is it…Read more

      • That 15% is really important. I like this image from the fantastic Sonia Sparkles: Sorry can’t add it here. I’ll put it in a new post.

    • When I was introduced to the idea of the reticular activating system, it really gave me pause for thought about what I was locking into /and locking out. So much so I created a reflective workbook to help others who may be interested in considering the filters they use to see the world through, also with support from a colleague made a wee…Read more

    • Hi Rollo

      I am kind of on that journey too, around where we invest our energy, more and more I am thinking of the time spent in meetings going in circles and not really being able to influence the big picture in any meaningful way, then I think about the work I do directly with people and while the impact may not be as grand as a systems shift, it…Read more

  • Although my experience is limited I also found the ‘ritualisation’ paper (Facey et al 2023) fascinating and relatable; our situation is perhaps at one remove from the surgical intervention scenario. However in our extended quality control I have wondered about checklists as hints. Our team aims to engage with (measurement) results and assess…Read more

    Thanks for bringing my attention to this piece of work from Journal of Research in Nursing [15(1) 9–13 , 2009] Maben et al.
    It reminded me that at the end or perhaps focus of much of my imagined work is a patient, complex and as human as any of us. Categories and numeric analytics go some way to removing the empathic element of healthcare. The s…Read more

    • Thank you for sharing. It resonates with my own thinking around balance. If someone has a rare disease it can be harder to identify and find a treatment for as its rare, the more information and data you have about the condition and responses to treatment the better outcomes there will be for people who experience this illness. We need analytics,…Read more
