Strengthening Reliability and Sustainability: Integrating Training Within Industry (TWI) in a Quality Improvement Collaborative.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Integrating process improvement tools into healthcare has shown promising results, yet the application of "training within industry" (TWI) still needs to be explored in this context. This study focuses on implementing job instruction (JI), one of the three components of TWI, within a large breakthrough series collaborative (BTS) in a middle-income country.
