Developing a quality strategy: a workshop with NHS England

Huge change is happening across the health and care sector. This presents a challenge and also an opportunity to ensure quality is at the forefront of priorities for the NHS. To align with the 10 Year Health Plan​’s three shifts, the National Quality Board are developing a quality strategy to ensure a system-wide focus on quality to drive improvements in care, experience and outcomes. 

Join us for an online workshop with the NHS England team developing the strategy and feed into its development. 

Over 90 minutes, workshop activities will aim to: 

• Share feedback and work to date on the quality strategy 
• Give time to reflect and input on the draft quality strategy 
• Discuss what will be key to successful implementation of the strategy 

Attendees will hear from Kate Lupton and Meera Sookee, strategy leads in the national Nursing and Medical Directorates at NHSE, who will give an overview of the strategy. You will then have the opportunity to test the thinking that is informing the strategy, ask questions and contribute your expertise and experience to shape the strategy as it continues to develop ahead of publication later this year. 

Please note that this agenda is not confirmed and is subject to change.  

There will be multiple ways for attendees to contribute including through breakout groups, asking questions to speakers and through anonymous polling and feedback. 

This event is open to Q members and non‑Q members. Places are very limited for this workshop so please book your place soon. We are especially keen to hear from Q members and colleagues who are working outside of improvement teams, including quality control, quality assurance, operations and finance directorates and leadership roles. 

We use automated closed captions on Zoom. The workshop will be recorded for the purposes of note capture. Key insights will be anonymised and shared with NHSE to inform the quality strategy. 

We aim to make our events accessible and inclusive and encourage you to let us know about anything you need to ensure you can participate fully. If you need other adjustments, please contact us: q@health.org.uk
