Fundamental Care Collaborative

About the collaborative

The collaborative is designed so that busy teams are supported to build skills that make implementing change projects a realistic part of their busy working day.

During the collaborative participants will:

• Develop their knowledge of theories that support change in practice.

• Develop an understanding of how they can personally influence change.

• Design and run a change project in their place of work to improve an element of fundamental care.

• Focus on the QI journey to create a change project that is manageable and sustainable

Participants will receive the Scottish Improvement Foundation Skills certificate.

The whole team will also receive a certificate of recognition for contributing to excellence in fundamental care on behalf of NHS Highland.

The Fundamental Care Collaborative has been established to support continuous improvement of the care within services across the organisation. As the first collaborative of its kind within NHS Highland, this presents an exciting opportunity to bring together staff from a range of teams, services and professional backgrounds to share learning, test innovative approaches, and support one another in delivering meaningful improvements to fundamental care.
