A celebration event for the graduates of two programmes took place on Monday 6 March at University Hospital Wishaw.
Those completing the courses SCIL (Scottish Improvement Leader Programme) and SCLIP (Scottish Coaching and Leading for Improvement programme) joined with colleagues to share their learning and talk about their experiences. The event was opened by new executive medical director Dr Chris Deighan.
We were also lucky to be joined by previous graduates who spoke about the skills they learned on these courses and how they have taken these forward within their work.
Projects discussed on the day ranged from Improving Person Centred Nutritional Care Planning in a Care of the Elderly Ward, Wayfinding and signage in University Hospital Monklands and South West Scotland Vascular Network.
Karon Cormack, NHS Lanarkshire director of quality said: “It was wonderful to hear about the graduate’s experience on the course and the project they have been involved in.
“Their enthusiasm for improving quality was uplifting and I look forward to seeing what they will do with their skills and knowledge in the future.”
The Improvement Team will inform of any future recruitment for these national courses in the staff briefing.
