Protocol for an integrated evaluation framework to study training, curricular and contextual factors impacting the success of a measurement for improvement training programme for healthcare staff in Ireland.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Measurement for improvement is the process of collecting, analysing and presenting data to demonstrate whether a change has resulted in an improvement. It is also important in demonstrating sustainability of improvements through continuous measurement. This makes measurement for improvement a core element in quality improvement (QI) efforts. However, there is little to no research investigating factors that influence measurement for improvement skills in healthcare staff. This protocol paper presents an integrated evaluation framework to understand the training, curricular and contextual factors that influence the success of measurement for improvement training by using the experiences of trainees, trainers, programme and site coordinators.
