Quality Academy
Quality Project
A
key component of the Quality Academy is the completion of a quality project that enables participants to apply the concepts learned during residency sessions while obtaining support from their faculty mentor.
Participants are encouraged to begin exploring potential topic areas with their organization during the application process. During the first residency session, time will be set aside for participants to finalize their project with the completion of a project charter. Projects will be required to meet the following criteria:
- explicitly address one or more dimension of quality, based upon the BC Health Quality Matrix;
- relates to the strategic or business plan of the organization;
- supported by an organizational Executive Sponsor;
- has a measurable aim statement;
- progress toward the aim can be made within six months;
- has the support of a clinical champion (where the project occurs in a clinical area);
- incorporates the patient perspective; and
- baseline data is available or can be obtained for the outcome measure
