Act Plan Study Do Adopt protocols throughout region Spreading a change to other locations Make part of routine operations Set criteria and standards for each unit to meet Implementing a change Test under a variety of conditions Test best practice from other units Testing a change Theory and Prediction Developing a change
Sustaining Change Working to a single set of standards nationally (VSGBI/ NAAASP) Measurement of service delivery against standards The new National Vascular Registry Regular reporting to monitor progress Ensure we ‘hold the gains’ and not return to an old level of performance
Key Learning for Change • Local leadership is vital • A mutually supportive network encourages participation • Success more likely if all stakeholders engage; • VSGBI, VASGBI, BSIR, C&S Networks & Commissioners • Regular meetings to share best practice and focus on process and quality
Value in sharing best practice? Another meeting, take turns to host? Input from local C&S Networks and Commissioners? Evidence of best practice from today that should be adopted throughout region? Key areas to standardise in region? Risk assessment, MDT Patient Information Minimum standards Areas that still require testing? Discussion: The Next Steps for the NW?
