UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
Welcome everyone to the September #ukmedlibs chat, on quality improvement. @tomroper here at the controls. Before we dive in, please introduce yourselves in whatever manner you feel seemly. And don’t forget the hashtag: if you don’t use it, your contributions won’t be seen
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
We’ve prepared some resources to help inform the discussion: #ukmedlibs https://t.co/s8MxukqZzv [There: even we forget the hashtag]
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
And our first question: what are you doing locally to support quality improvement in the organisations your services support? #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
@RuthMuscat Welcome Ruth! Welcome everybody, of course, but a special welcome for first timers #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
@CILIPHLG Yes, communication is often a theme. We’ve done work in @BrightonSx_LKS to support adoption of the SBAR tool #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
@NewcombLibrary @tomroper @h_m17 @QIHomerton @ELFT_QI Interesting! Not sure if @roxannehartq is joining us today but in her #HLG2018 presentation (on the resources list) she identified ways she can intervene at different stages of QI projects #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
Keep your answers coming on what you’re doing locally, but tell us too, how do you think supporting QI projects differs from the run-of-the-mill support you give clinicians and managers? #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
(Not that anything health LKSs do is run-of-the-mill) #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
@KnowledgeAmigo @SueK4H Blimey! Are you going to publish this anywhere? #ukmedlibs

You mentioned dedicated improvement librarians: who’s got one, or is thinking of having one? #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
What are the pros and cons of such posts? How do you define the boundary between their areas of interest and those of the rest of the LKS team? #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
@KnowledgeAmigo @SueK4H We’ll follow with interest! #ukmedlibs

@UKMedLibs Hi all, Doug here from the PRUH at KCH. We've just got our foot in the QI door and I'm now on the steering group. We're using padlet and the library opac on koha to store posters from a QI showcase event https://t.co/vPryrWgyPv #ukmedlibs

@UKMedLibs I'm also hoping that closer involvement with the QI steering group will enable us to provide more traditional support (lit searches / evidence) for projects #ukmedlibs

UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
Several of you have mentioned current awareness services as important support for QI: how are you doing this? #ukmedlibs

@UKMedLibs Not sure it is different it just has the potential for greater impact at a higher level meeting Trust objectives #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
How much support do you think there is for QI at very senior level in trusts? #ukmedlibs

@yiwen_h @KnockDoug @JackWatkeys What do you advise people to do if such a group doesn’t exist (or is ineffective, or too low down the food chain)? #ukmedlibs

We’re going to finish at 13.30, so we’re entering the last ten minutes. So can I ask those of you who are actively supporting QI, what one thing could people who don’t yet do, to get started? #ukmedlibs

@scaredycait Lurking is not only permitted but encouraged! #ukmedlibs

We’ll leave the last word to @SueLaceybryant et al, in their paper Forward view: advancing health library and knowledge services in England (see resource list): “librarians’ expertise....provide[s] a keystone for improved patient care and safety” #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
We need to work some IT magic to get the usual transcript and analytics out of Symplur (because we changed the time). But they should be forthcoming in due course #ukmedlibs
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
By the way, this is our first lunchtime #ukmedlibs We ran a poll earlier in the year and a good proportion of responders said they’d like lunchtimes. We may do more, if you think this worked. Let us know: : @ reply to us, DM us, or e-mail ukmedlibs@gmail.com
UKMedLibs @UKMedLibs
Time to stop, I fear. Journal clubs to go to, etc. Hope you enjoyed it. We’ll be back in October, in the evening of 15th, for emerging technologies #ukmedlibs
