PocEd QI is an ideal introduction or refresher to quality improvement (QI), where individuals and teams within Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (ABUHB) come together to learn about the fundamentals of improvement theory and practice.

Aimed at all staff groups within ABUHB, PocEd QI will introduce you to:

• Model for Improvement

• QI tools and techniques you can use to understand what is happening now

• Developing measures to progress towards your aim and use data for improvement

• Using creativity to develop ideas and test if these work in practice using PDSA (Plan Do Study Act) cycles.

If you want to know what QI is all about, are part of a team looking to improve their service, or wondering how you can get involved with QI, PocEd QI is for you.
