•Working Together: CareSearch, NSAP, PCOC
•Six Questions

Drivers for change•Health care variability
• Not receiving recommended care• Fragmented care
•Demand issues• Increased demand• Changing patterns of need
•Dynamic evidence base•Costs and resources•Health information technology

QI and Evidence•EBM/EBP: Evidence to inform quality care•Evidence as content in QI processes•Value add between EBM and QI•Emerging evidence of value of QI•QI processes as a source of new evidence

Working Together: NSAP, PCOC, CareSearch
All programs funded by Department of Health and AgingAll work with Palliative Care Services to improve Service quality
STANDARDSNSAP: National Standards Assessment Program• Services complete a self assessment snapshot
every 2 years against the standards• Create and implement a quality improvement
action plan, based on these results

Working Together Change Framework
![Page 11: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Question 1:
•Think about how you know there is a problem. Describe the problem for others.Be specific about the problem.
•Outline how big a problem it is and how it affects your work and your patients.
•You also need to consider whether it is a problem that you can solve.
Is there a problem?
![Page 12: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Question 2: •Do some analysis on possible causes
• Service characteristics• Patient population• Feedback from patients/staff
•Check to see if there are reports or articles on similar problems
•Speak with other services about whether similar issues
What is causing the problem?
![Page 13: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Question 3:•Check for evidence on the specific issue.Find out if there is evidence for new or different approaches.
•Find out if there are tools or measures you could use.
•Review what is effective in change management. Think if some of these strategies could be used in your plan.
Is there evidence
about what to do?
![Page 14: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Question 4:•Check your plan indicates• Who• What• By when
•Make sure your plan is suitable for your service.
•Identify and include measures that can be used to show if things are changing
Does your plan address the issues?
![Page 15: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Question 5:•Monitor what is happening as you implement the plan.
•You may need to vary your plan. Things change.People change. New information may emerge.
•Keep a note of why something changed and what you did in response.
Were you able to
implement your plan?
![Page 16: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Question 6:•Review everything that happened.Just because you did something does not mean that what you wanted to, or expected to, happen actually did happen.
•Determine if the problem has been solved. Think about whether a different approach is needed.
Have you reviewed what you
did?
![Page 17: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
WTCF Workshop Evaluation•Ethics received for evaluation study
• Post-workshop questionnaire• Follow up survey (8 weeks)
•Objectives• To determine Workshop participants’ responses to the
Working Together Change Framework• To evaluate the effectiveness of the Workshop content and
format• To determine if participation in the Workshop led to
change activity in the service
![Page 18: Evidence, Standards and Outcomes: Taking a leadership role in palliative care](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a4550346895db3c1b4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Using the Working Together Group•Services can identify quality improvement opportunities through PCOC, NSAP processes
•Evidence summaries on priority areas available through CareSearch
•Workshops and projects to build knowledge and expertise in QI
