Abstract

Why are Quality Improvement Projects useful for junior doctors?
The concept of quality improvement is a key focus point throughout foundation training in the UK. Quality Improvement aims to bring about “measurable improvement by applying specific methods within a healthcare setting”. Quality Improvement Projects focus not only on outcomes of a project, but also on “changing provider behaviour” and encouraging the integration of QI into everyone’s working life within healthcare.
