Quality Improvement Network Meet Up #6

The Current State of Quality Improvement Research

A presentation and interactive discussion on the latest research into quality improvement success in UK health and care settings

Date: Monday, 20 October 2025

Time: 12noon - 1 pm 

Location: MS Teams

We invite you to join us for our October QIN ‘Meet Up’ offering an ‘open table’ discussion around what you perceive as the current impact and barriers to successful QI projects. Our monthly Meet Ups provide an open, honest and supportive forum for improvers to share their experiences and learn from one another.

Building on a recent literature review as the starting point, we will outline the critical research landscape related to barriers and facilitators of successful QI projects. We want to hear what you think, and we will ask attendees to contribute by sharing their thoughts and experiences. Through listening to reflections on the current data and personal experiences, we will stimulate a discussion to help us share and learn together.

Attendees will receive a refresher on how to apply research methods to gain insights into the QI landscape and will connect with individuals interested in improving health and care services from diverse backgrounds and professions.
