Developing and piloting a peer quality improvement coaching protocol for front-line healthcare staff.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Improving the quality of patient care remains a global necessity. Despite system and professional benefits, current evidence indicates that the spread of improvement principles among front-line healthcare workers remains poor.While education and training alone are unlikely to result in consistent improvement practice, coaching can play a critical role in sustainable, evidence-based improvement implementation. Peer quality improvement coaching (PQIC) places the power and agency in the shared relationship between coach and coachee to shape coachee quality improvement (QI) outcomes.Study objective was to develop and pilot an evidence-based protocol for implementation and evaluation of a PQIC for front-line staff engaged in small to intermediate improvement efforts.
