What is Quality Care?
Safe Timely Effective Efficient Equitable Patient - Centered
Problem Hunting….
What Needs Improving?
• Write you own niggle list, but be careful• Or analyse one aspect of patient care
Safe – where are patients being harmed?Timely – how are we wasting time?Effective – what are we doing that does not work?Efficient – how are we wasting NHS resources?Equitable – what’s not fair?Patient-focused – where are patients being forgotten?
Example 1 – Analysing Safety
Example 2 – Analysing Processes
• Process Mapping is the visual representation of a Patient journey
• What ACTUALLY happens, not what should be happening, or you think is happening.
• Any process should be possible to map
Process Mapping
Process Mapping
The box represents the task or activities of the process.
The arrows represent the direction of flow of the process.
If you need to, you can also use a diamond shape to indicate a question, or decision point.
Why Map a Process?
“If you can’t describe what you are doing as a process, you don’t
know what you’re doing.”
– William Edwards Deming
Stages in PM
Map the process
Prioritise
Make it easier to do the right thing
Make it harder to do the wrong thing
Spot & stop errors
Know exactlywhat’s
happening
Deliberate Reliable Design
Processes should be… Standardised for
Testing Training Reliability
Simple – the less steps the less error Safe – sometimes redundant steps
needed
eg How do at-risk infants get Vitamin D?
Deliberate reliable design – ???
Process Mapping - 2 Stages
• Stage 1 - Understand what actually happens to the Patient, where it happens and who is involved.
• Stage 2 - Use the map to identify steps that could be changed.
PM Stage 1 – What actually happens?• How many times is the Patient passed
from one person to another (Hand offs)?• Approximate task time• Approximate time between tasks (wait
times)• Total time taken• Number of steps
PM Stage 2 – Identify problems
Look for any…• Bottle necks or constraints (Queues)• Delays? (Wait for
clinician/consent/results/parking)• Repetition? (e.g. Patient identity check)• Unnecessary travel or movement in the
department. (Patient, staff, kit or notes)• Unnecessary steps?• Inefficient order of events?
Mind the gap !
Look at the whole process,not just the individual steps.
Have a go!
Look at the anticoagulant clinic process map and see if you can come up with improvements
OR
Try and draw a process map. Choose something you think you know well. Swap with neighbour and look for possible improvements.

2004 – 2 Olympic Golds

2012, 13 & 15 – Tour de France winners
The whole principle came from the idea that if you broke down everything you could think of that goes into riding a bike, and then improved it by 1%, you will get a significant increase when you put them all together“
David Brailsford, 2012
Philosophy of ‘Marginal Gains’
e.g. take your own pillow (change project; secondary driver, sleep better)

What Do You Want to Change?In your practice you could…1. Identify an aim2. Come up with lots of ideas – think
smalli. Through team meetingii. Or suggestion box
3. Group them4. Remove duplications/Expand other
ideas5. Identify idea(s) to implement

Any Questions?
NHS Model For Improvement
What are we trying to accomplish?
How will we know that change is an improvement?
What change can we make that will result in improvement?
The Model for Improvement
Langley, G., Nolan, K., and Nolan, T., 1994. The Foundation of Improvement, Quality Progress, June 1994
What are we trying to accomplish?
The Model for Improvement
Setting the aim: What are we trying to do?
State the aim in SMART terms:SpecificMeasurableAchievableRealisticTime Scale
Example: We aim to reduce the number of prescribing errors that occur by 20% in our GP surgery over the next 4 months.
How will we know that change is an improvement?
The Model for Improvement
All improvement requires change, but not all change is an improvement!
1. Measure a base line2. Ensure that everyone is measuring
the same thing3. Measure after the change4. Plot the changes on a Statistical
Process Control Chart (discussed later)
What change can we make that will result in improvement?

Act Plan
Study Do
Understanding the problem. Knowing what you’re trying to do - clear and desirable aims and objectives
Measuring processes and outcomes
Change ideas: What have others done? What hunches do we have? What can we learn as we go along?

Aim• What am I trying to achieve?• How will I know a change is an
improvement?• What changes can I make that will
result in the improvement
Start small
Benefits of this approach
• easier to start• produces better solutions more
quickly• engages people better• reduces waste• easier to continue

Structure, Process, Outcome & Balancing measures.
What to measure?
Structure Process Outcom
e
Avedis Donabedian
‘Outcomes remain the ultimate validators of the effectiveness and quality of medical care’ but they ‘must be used with discrimination’
The environment in which care
occurs
What care is delivered, and
how
The impact on patients and the
population
What to measure?
Structure Process Outcom
e
e.g. Structure indicators…• attributes relating to clinicians (such as certification, training)• midwife to birth ratio • Size of community nursing teams• access to equipment eg, MRI scanners.
Structure Process Outcom
e
What to measure?
e.g. Process indicators…• antenatal assessment <13 weeks• physical checks in people with serious mental illness• structured education for people with diabetes• people with stroke reviewed <6 months of leaving hospital• 7 day follow up after OPMH admission
What to measure?
NICE quality standards…
e.g. Outcome indicators…• Falls• Peri natal mortality• hospital admissions for ambulatory care-sensitive conditions• mortality within 30 days of hospital admission for stroke• emergency re-admissions within 30 days of discharge from hospital• health-related quality of life for people with long-term conditions• patient experience of maternity services• Patient Reported Outcome Measures• Unexpected deaths
