This programme will enable you to develop your theoretical knowledge of quality improvement approaches in health care, to facilitate the development of critical thinking and to utilise and apply such approaches within candidate's individual area of practice.

The challenge to deliver safe and effective care whilst maximising the utilisation of resources remains a continuous challenge for all practitioners involved in health care both nationally and internationally. The six dimensions of quality are often referred to as safety, effectiveness, patient-centred, timeliness, efficiency and equity. Our course will explore all of these aspects.
On completion of this programme, candidates will be equipped to influence and lead quality improvements in practice, making a real difference in their place of work.
