Achieving Behaviour Change (ABC): An Introductory Masterclass

Share

In A Nutshell:

Discover how behaviour change methods can be applied to quality improvement challenges.

Many things we do in healthcare to improve safety, such as the introduction of new guidelines, require staff to change their behaviour. We often assume this is easy – tell people what to do and they will do it. But, behaviour change can be difficult to achieve.

This Masterclass provides an introduction to our evidence-based Achieving Behaviour Change (ABC) approach, helping you to:

  • Understand how behaviour change theory can enhance quality improvement efforts
  • Understand how to identify and address barriers to behaviour change
  • See how this approach can be applied in practice with our case studies.

 

After attending this Introductory Masterclass, participants who would like to develop practical skills in using the ABC approach will be invited to consider attending our follow-on ‘Theory to Practice’ virtual training and coaching ‘Learning by Doing’ programme.

who we are working with

The work being led by the Improvement Academy - such as safety huddles - is nothing short of awe-inspiring. I was particularly struck by the Academy's approach to improvement."
