A Carnival Atmosphere for QI in Bedfordshire & Luton!
16th September 2016
The quality improvement programme
ISIA training was held at the UK Centre for Carnival Arts
in Bedfordshire and Luton is now well underway with the start of Wave 5 Improvement Science in Action (ISIA) training. From 14th-16th September over 100 staff joined Dr Robert Lloyd from IHI and the QI team for their first face to face training workshop of the 6 month ISIA programme.
Over the last few months training participants have been developing service improvement ideas that are now becoming fully formed be QI projects as the training progresses.
The ISIA teaches QI project teams to refine their aims, use Driver Diagrams to understand their system and prioritise change ideas, measure data for improvement, test changes using Plan Do Study Act (PDSA), and introduces many other concepts and tools that teams can use throughout the project’s lifecycle.
Around 30 QI projects across the two Directorates are now up and running, see some of the themes below. Look out for the improvements they will bring for our service users!
ELFT have now trained over 500 staff, service users and carers in ISIA, equipping them with core skills to lead improvement to all our services. If you’re interested in ISIA or any other QI training, have a look at this to see what best suits you.
