Quality Improvement Projects
We are experienced in delivering quality improvement projects across whole health and care pathways, ICBs and regions to integrate effective self-management support across systems, enabling large-scale workforce transformation.
We do this by:
- Upskilling your workforce in delivering high quality self-management support throughout their practice. This has been shown to improve self-efficacy, mood, quality of life and well-being of individuals living with long-term conditions.
- Working with you to develop or review team and service processes to monitor and evaluate the impact of self-management support on people with long-term conditions and their families.
- Enabling you to communicate the impact of how you provide self-management support across local populations and share key messages to your stakeholders.
- Working with you to support individuals and families to be more in control of their everyday lives and health – offering the potential to reduce repeated, short term healthcare interventions.
- Support you to consider any improvements you can make to team processes and paperwork, and how you can co-design these improvements with your patients.
Have a look at some of our current and recent large-scale quality improvement projects:
