Objectives
To better understand:
•How is spread defined?•What are the difficulties with spreading and improvement?•How do you evaluate when it is opportune to spread an improvement?•Understand and use tools designed to evaluate spread of improvements

Recent research• Scale – up and Spread recent shift in
thinking • Complexity Science influences how we
think about the complex social behaviors of spread.

“Deliberately attending to patterns of self-organization can be a powerful strategy for improving diffusion of effective health care
practices across diverse settings”

Sensemaking
“…is the process through which people assign meaning to experience.” (Lanham, 2012)
![Page 15: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Key Themes
•Human dimension•Diffusion of knowledge•Infrastructure
![Page 16: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• What do you want to spread?• Who is the spread intended for?• How are we going to spread?

Common “Spread” Problems
Keeping the Engine Running:Sharing Directions for Successful Spread & Sustainability
Dr. Lynne MaherHead of Innovation Practice, NHS UK
![Page 23: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Exercise• At your table you have some of the Myths and
Don’ts with respect to the spread of improvements.
• With your table discuss how you would turn those Myths and Don’ts into Reality and Do’s
20 minutes
![Page 24: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Reality and Do’sLocal Small Scale Testing, Local Implementation under
multiple conditions, Spread Small scale testing is crucial to learning how to neutralise or
overcome barriers
Front line staff opinions generated from small scale testing are essential in creating a clearly defined process
Most processes can be “firmed up” in 3 or 4 cycles of testing and in the long run will be faster and have more chance of success than larger scale implementation
![Page 25: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Spread is a TEAM effort
A process dependent on a single individual is basically not a sustainable process
When key individuals are absent, the reliability of the process will deteriorate within days
![Page 26: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Expecting vigilance and hard work to solve problems
Hold the gains with infrastructure support Hard work and vigilance cannot be maintained over the
long term A process that succeeds using hard work and vigilance is
hard to teach to new employees A process dependent on hard work is difficult to test for
competency
![Page 27: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Choose the Non-negotiables but allow local customization
Without allowing some key elements of customization, successful spread will be very unlikely.
Customization should be allowed, but controlled.
Customization should be based on understanding defects. Study small samples and customize based on the learning.
![Page 28: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Choose the Spread Team based on the scope of the spread
Using the successful leader in one unit to be responsible for spread will burn out this person unless they have been specifically given the job of champion
Allowing others to assume the responsibility helps builds the infrastructure to sustain the process
Spread requires local leaders with a common goal set by leadership
![Page 29: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Frequently look at the spread measures to “tailor” the work of spread
Look at defects as they occur both when initially testing and when spreading
Use the “10 Chart Strategy”
Look at small samples on a daily or every other day basis
![Page 30: Spreading Improvements Heidi Johns, Quality Leader, BCPSQC July, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b157f8b9ab059991122/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Outcome improvement needs widespread reliable processes & implementation
Outcomes can not be expected to change unless processes change. Staff can be responsible for process improvement.
If processes becomes highly reliable the outcome will follow as long as it is connected to science.
Outcomes will change on the pilot unit only after processes become more reliable.
