Quality Improvement Training

Following the success of our first 2 Cohorts of the QSIR Virtual Quality Improvement (QI) training, the QI Academy are delighted to be able to offer another 2 Cohorts starting in January 2021. QSIR Virtual is designed as an introduction to QI.

This training is free and open to ALL staff members from across the organisation, but staff must commit to attending all modules in order to gain certification. QSIR Virtual is also now an accredited programme for 8 CPD credits. Training will be delivered using Microsoft Teams only. If you do not work within Walsall Healthcare but are still interested in the course, do not hesitate to get in touch to explore your options.

The full 5 day Quality Service Improvement Redesign (QSIR) Practitioner syllabus covers a wide variety of key improvement tools in depth.

QSIR was produced by NHS Improvement but will be delivered by trained local experts from within the organisation and will stand you in good stead for all improvement projects from quick wins through to larger scale transformational projects and whole system or pathway redesign. This course is accredited by both the Royal College of Nursing and the Royal College of Physicians with CPD points available.

QSIR Fundamentals is a one day programme that offers participants an introduction to a range of tried and tested service improvement tools and approaches that give them the confidence and skills to start on their improvement journey.

It is suited to both clinical and non-clinical staff wish to get involved in their own local quality and service improvement projects. It also provides a valuable refresher for colleagues who may have used some quality improvement tools previously or who have been involved in improvement projects in the past.

Sometimes you may not wish to undergo the full Quality Service Improvement and Redesign training packages but need some support locally.

The QI Academy can help you achieve your aims with bespoke training and support. This might be helping you review your data in a different way or further guidance in the use of specific quality improvement tools such as process mapping. Contact us now for further details.
