Lesley Parkinson 💙 WBS I’ve previously used a simple rules approach to create a ‘team manual’ that could fit on a credit card, so everyone could always have a printed copy with them, but so short you could remember it anyway

Great answer, anywhere is a safe space with that consistency #QIhour #LeadingQI

People always respond well when they realise how human we are :) #QIhour #LeadingQI

Lee Sutcliffe Hi Lee- think it helps to think in terms of people. People alongside people, albeit with diffnt roles in diffnt contexts, but people with hearts, minds, anxieties. People under diffnt pressures, with life context, varying energy levels. Individual experiences & common humanity...

Leaders showing engaging interest in improvement is key to embed it as an important day to day activity for an organisation, so it was great to see Worcestershire Acute NHS CEO @M_J_Hopkins drop in and chat to the RPIW team focused on consultant recruitment.

Looking forward to taking part in this next week, and would welcome anyone to join us and share #LeadingQI

Join us tonight for the final tweet chat in Dr Nicola Burgess series, looking forward to understanding everyone's viewpoint on measurement for improvement. UHCW NHS Trust #LeadingQI #QIHour

I remember lots of conversations with great Virginia Mason Institute partners that said that's a great idea, but think smaller #QIhour #LeadingQI

WBS A2. Also thinking about the burden of data collection, encourage use of system data where it is seen as reliable as well as data from direct observation. Data for improvement doesn’t need to be as complex as data for formal research #LeadingQI #QIHour

WBS A2. As Billy Beane said in the film Moneyball, “It’s a process, it’s a process, it’s a process.” Good outcomes are the result of reliable processes, so begin your measurement there. There’s a lot of latent improvement potential in driving out unwarranted variation

When your cohort of leaders recreate you in cartoon form... Think they've captured us really well Lee Sutcliffe

Cohorts 1-5 of the UHCW leaders programme came to celebrate this morning. Filled with pride to see the programme that we helped shape, has connected people and built a community of leaders spanning all over the hospital.

At stand-up today we heard from Becky,Sharon,Donna, Marcus,Roxy,Lisa and Naomi about the power of 5s across the EM and Acute Medicine stores. Key takeaway - team engagement has cut the time searching for items - releasing more time to care #UHCWi

Today at stand up we heard from Paul on how his team has used waste reduction & mistake proofing on reducing reporting time & from Paula on how a waste walk identified wait states in the pressure ulcer incident response for moderate harms & how the PDSA cycle was utilised #UHCWi

The green and blue area in the Innovation Hub is set up ready for next week's RPIW focusing on the Robotic Assisted Radical Prostatectomy. We look forward to welcoming team members from theatres and surgery. Joan Goodbody Sarah Moulton Annis Rowley #betterneverstops

Great to see colleagues Worcestershire Acute NHS embracing the RPIW with intrigue, what a fantastic turnout! Well done WAHT Improvement System

Today, Craig & Nina facilitated a Kaizen event for Clinic 3 Lung Function! The team were taught key concepts like value & waste, 5S & set up reduction before a enthused ideas generation session! We can’t wait to see how this work develops, the discussions were inspiring 🤩 #UHCWi

Ongoing conversation at the Virginia Mason Institute booth on what a management system truly is and how it can work at the system level. Come visit us! #Quality2024 #London #VirginiaMasonInstitute #VMI #NHSImpact

Today is day 1 of RPIW 14.3 looking at speciality review in our Medical Assessment Unit, where colleagues from Acute Medicine, Gastroenterology and Respiratory have joined together to collaborate on improvements in the pathway, ensuring that the patient remains at the centre

Another day, another RPIW. The first RPIW in the Chemotherapy Value Stream. The team will spend the week looking at the patient pathway from check in to my chemotherapy is booked. Today consisted of teaching and data exploration #RPIW16.1 #UHCWi
