What the programme offers
During the three sessions, you will gain valuable insight into adoption and spread theory and effective tools you and your project team can put into immediate practice.
The workshops will include a selection of case studies, theory and interactive activities to teach you the skills and capabilities needed for successful adoption and spread of your intervention/improvement. Using the latest thinking in healthcare adoption and spread, you will learn how to:
- choose an appropriate adoption and spread model
- understand what is core to your intervention/improvement
- lead adoption and spread
- evaluate its impact
- influence and engage others
Who is this course for?
Ideally attendees will come with an improvement idea they have tested at small scale in an NHS organisation and who want to learn how to think about the skills and capabilities needed for adoption and spread.
Attendees can be in any role and level within their organisation, for example from clinical, administration or facilities. Priority will be given to attendees from organisations in the West of England.
Attendees will be interested in applying learning to real-world scenarios either personal or professional.
You must have the support and commitment of your employing organisation and your line manager to release you to attend the dates listed above.
Our academy works hard to welcome attendees from a broad range of backgrounds creating a safe and open environment for learning and sharing ideas.
