Make the status quo uncomfortable
Make the future attractive
3. Build Will• Plan for improvement• Set aims/allocate resources• Measure system
performance• Provide encouragement• Make financial linkages• Learn subject matter
5. Execute Change• Use Model for Improvement for
design and redesign• Review and guide key initiatives• Spread ideas• Communicate results• Sustain improved levels of performance
4. Generate Ideas• Understand organisation as a
system• Read and scan widely, learning
from other industries and disciplines
• Benchmark to find ideas• Listen to patients• Invest in research and
development• Manage knowledge

Defining status and position
Tools to find out the current status and position of an organisation or individual in relation to their environment and current role.
Use as a basis for future planning and strategic management.
Prioritisation – ‘something considered to be more important than other things’ (PMMI, 2006)
PESTLE Political – what are the key political drivers of
relevance? Economic – what are the important economic
factors? Social – what are the main social and cultural
aspects? Technological - what are current technology
imperatives, changes and innovations? Legal - what current and impending legislation
factors? Environmental - What are the environmental
considerations, locally and further afield?
Discussion 1: Using PESTLE take stock of the position of
your improvement topicthen
Use PESTLE to map the things that will influence the way your service is delivered

Ask yourself
• What are the problems that cause the bigger problem?
• What are you trying to achieve? (aim for each driver)
• How will you know a change is an improvement ? (outcome measures for each driver )
Drivers
Which in turn contribute directly to the ‘bigger’ aim
AimThe ‘big’ dots
Ask yourself
• What is the big (possibly strategic) problem you are addressing?
• What are you trying to achieve? (aim)
• How will you know a change is an improvement ? (outcome measures)
Ask yourself
What changes can you make that will result in the improvement you seek?
• What are the change ideas / interventions/ solutions to test with PDSA cycles before implementing?
• How will you know a change is an improvement? (process measures for each intervention)

The strategic aim (and

Reducing harm in perioperative
care
Reduce surgical site infections
Improve team work and
communications
Appropriate use of prophylactic antibodies
Maintain normothermia
Maintain glycaemic control in known diabetes
Use recommended hair removal methods
Use of the WHOSurgical safety checklist
Primary Drivers Secondary Drivers
Ref. Patients Safety First
Developing measures to support an objective
To provide accessible rented housing
Make effective use of existing public housing
Work with registered social landlords to develop public housing
Manage housing benefit effectively
• Percentage dwellings empty• Relet intervals for all public housing• Percentage housing stock in good repair
• Total number of dwellings available
• Speed of processing claims• Accuracy of processing claims
Discussion 2: Consider the position of your improvement
topic in a driver diagram
Is it a primary or secondary driver?
What would your driver diagram look like?
Measurement: Big dots and little dots The Model for Improvement breaks things
down into small steps and works of the ‘little dots’ – at the frontline
These small steps should be part of the answer to the question of how to move the big dots
Align all improvement projects to strategy
26
Define The Problem
An example Process Map:
Process Mapping The patient journey
◦ Who does what to the patient?◦ Define which group of patients◦ Define the scope (beginning
and end)◦ Identify everyone involved◦ Together, write it down or draw
it Other (sub-) processes
◦ Transport◦ Communication
Analysing a process map
How many steps? How many hand-offs? What is the approx. time of or between each
step? Where are possible delays and why? Where are the problems for users, carers and
staff? How many steps do not “add value”?
WASTE!
Ask why 5 times!!
Why is Lean Relevant?
“Lean thinking is not a manufacturing tactic or a cost reduction programme, but a management strategy that is applicable to all organisations because it has to do with improving processes. All organisations – including health care organisations – are composed of a series of processes, or sets of actions, intended to create value for those who use or depend on them (customer/patients)”
IHI: Going Lean in Health Care 2005
Eliminating Non Value Add has a major impact on
Quality, Cost and Service Delivery
Defects – “stuff” that is not right and
needs fixing e.g a leaky tap
Inventory – “stuff” waiting to be
worked on e.g patients
on a waiting list Overproduction – too much “stuff”
e.g. requesting unnecessary tests and X-rays
Motion – unnecessary movement e.g having to walk up and down
the ward to obtain appropriate supplies
Transportation – moving “stuff” e.g
moving patients from ward to ward
Waiting – people
waiting for “stuff” to arrive
e.g waiting for a ward
round
Injuries – damage to people e.g stress
Processing waste – “stuff” we have to do that doesn’t add value.
E.g continuing to care for patients in hospital when they could be discharged
What is Waste?Lean Principles
Mark Rahman NHS Scotland
Analysis of a process map
For each step ask ‘does it add value?’. If not ask: ◦ Can it be eliminated?◦ Can it be done in some other way?◦ Can it be done in a different order?◦ Can it be done somewhere else?◦ Can it be done in parallel?◦ Can any “Bottlenecks” be removed?◦ Is it being done by the most appropriate person?
31
What are the problems for users, carers and staff and what are the causes of the problem?Ishikawa (Fishbone) Diagrams
PPPP
People Place
Procedures Policies
33
Use Pareto Principle to identify cause(s) of problem to work on first
‘The 80-20 Rule’ ‘The Law of the Vital Few’ For many phenomena,
80% of the consequences stem from20% of the causes
Observation that 80% of income went to 20% of the population
Vilfredo Pareto, 1906

• The more specific the aim, the more likely the improvement
• Repeated clarification - without it aims drift
• Meet needs of external customers

Discussion 3:
Have you defined the problem and agreed the aim for your improvement topic? Can you verbalise it in order to
communicate?
Use a fishbone diagram to start to identify the causes of the problem

communicate ideas◦ Know how to work better
with that person

Think about • Your team strength• How the team can
be more effective• The style of the
individual who may cause most difficulty

The Three Faces of Performance MeasurementAspect Improvement Accountability Research
Aim Improvement of care Comparison, choice, reassurance, spur for
change
New knowledge
Methods:• Test Observability
Tests are observable No test; merely evaluate current performance
Test blinded or controlled tests
• Bias Accept consistent bias Measure and adjust to reduce bias
Design to eliminate bias
• Sample Size “Just enough” data, small sequential samples
Obtain 100% of available, relevant data
“Just in case” data
• Flexibility of
Hypothesis
Hypothesis flexible, changes as learning takes
place
No hypothesis Fixed hypothesis
• Testing Strategy Sequential tests No tests One large test
• Determining if a Change is an Improvement
Run charts or control charts
No change focus Hypothesis, statistical tests (t-test, F-test, chi
square), p-vlaues
• Confidentiality of the Data
Data used only by those involved with improvement
Data available for public consumption and review
Research subjects’ identities protected

Discussion 5: Measuring for Improvement
Think about Question 1 of The Improvement Model and the primary and secondary drivers of your improvement work What ARE you trying to achieve? How will you KNOW that a change is an improvement?
How can you display measures for improvement on run charts to share with others – the big dots and the little dots?
Link improvement measures to strategic measures
What are we trying toaccomplish?
How will we know that achange is an improvement?
What change can we make thatwill result in improvement?
