RESOURCE NEWS - November 09, 2022
The CI4E Resource Hub regularly spotlights innovative resources and tools from our resource library to help teams center equity in their continuous improvement efforts.
The following worksheets and checklists from the Improvement Collective enable teams to improve their testing capacity, find the right data, and act on the lessons learned from continuous improvement testing cycles. Teams searching for ways to build inclusive and equitable structures and decision-making processes will find the following resources useful:
Provides meeting structures to share learning from investigations and to consolidate learning for the next session. Teams can leverage this protocol to create a consistent process for reflecting on the testing intervention process and revising change ideas as needed based on shared learning.
Teams can use the PDSA Checklist to ensure their PSDA documentation meets key quality criteria. This tool allows teams to reflect on their testing intervention cycles’ goals, processes, and outcomes and make necessary revisions.
This resource includes a document that explains the PDSA protocol and a downloadable template that can be used by leaders and teams to test interventions and change ideas. The PDSA cycle begins with articulating the change and recording predictions about what we expect will happen (plan); attempting to change and documenting what did happen (do); comparing the results to the predictions (study) and deciding on what to do next (act).
