A Joint Healthcare Conferences UK &

Quality Improvement Clinic Ltd Masterclass

Healthcare practitioners are under pressure to deliver high- quality, safe services as well as to save money and time. Delivering healthcare services is complex, often involving many partners and organisations. Sometimes, when things go wrong, we focus on the limitations of human behaviour. And yet most often things go right because of the humans involved.

This programme gets to the heart of these challenges through applying insights about the ways we behave so that improvements can be tried, tested and sustained over time. You will gain greater understanding of human behaviour and how you can bring those insights to systematically improve the care you and you team provide.

Attending this workshop will give you understanding and practical tools to help you achieve national, regional, organisational and team improvement objectives including CQUINS, QIPS

The course combines evidence-based insights from human behaviour with quality improvement methodologies to give delegates the tools they can use again and again to drive improvement.
