The Royal College of Physicians has a longstanding and successful track record of quality improvement projects and programmes, including national clinical audits, the Learning to Make a Difference programme for core medical trainees, and national clinical guidelines produced on behalf of NICE by the National Guideline Centre.
The Quality Improvement Hub works with other projects across the RCP to develop QI resources, tools and methodologies, and combine them with courses, coaching and networking to support clinicians and healthcare workers in their quality improvement work. By acting as a repository for QI work, the Hub aims to make quality improvement easily accessible to all clinicians and support physicians and their teams in developing and providing safe, timely, evidence-based, efficient and patient-centred care to achieve the RCP’s strategic aim of improving quality.
