Abstract

[Extract] We present a novel approach to supporting health professionals' competencies in quality improvement (QI) methods by nurturing a systems perspective aligned with national healthcare quality and safety priorities. Health professionals undertaking the graduate certificate level subject, Effective Clinical Governance, progress through the intensive online program and complete a series of authentic and sequential assessments to identify and analyse a workplace issue before proposing a QI initiative. Our novel approach is the application of the National Clinical Governance Framework (Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care 2017) as a framework to structure a systems approach.
