Introduction to QI for Service Users & Carers

Why is it important?

It is essential that Service Users and Carers are involved in QI because they are on the receiving end of the services that we offer. It is essential that staff learn from their experience, understand what really matters and what would make a meaningful difference in the services we provide to them.

Our Introduction to QI Training for Service Users and Carers is a 3-hour interactive session

Most of our training sessions all take place at East London Foundation Trust’s headquarters: 9 Alie Street, E1 8D but we also run at venues across Bedfordshire and Luton – (Please note, that during the current COVID-19 situation, we are offering all or most of our pieces of training via online platforms)
