6. Your Quality Improvement colleagues need you!
As Q members, we are able to work together to share experience, ideas and enthusiasm for patient safety improvement programmes. We’d love to be able to use your collective knowledge to support, inspire and develop future Q Members. Kent Surrey Sussex Patient Safety Collaborative already offers Bronze online QI training to more than 500 people in our Improvers Network. We’d now like to offer Silver training – with your help. We are still at the early stages of planning, but imagine a free day’s training seminar, with lectures by Q members on topics they are passionate about (e.g. Human Factors, measuring for improvement, PDSA). If you can imagine yourself standing up and delivering a session, then we’d love to hear from you! Write down details of the topic (or topics!) you could present, together with your name and contact details, on the back of the card in your pack, hand it to a member of the KSS team and we’ll be in touch.
