Definition of Quality Improvement In Public Health
“Quality improvement in public health is the use of a deliberate and defined improvement process, such as Plan-Do-Check-Act, which is focused on activities that are responsive to community needs and improving population health.
It refers to a continuous and ongoing effort to achieve measurable improvements in the efficiency, effectiveness, performance, accountability, outcomes, and other indicators of quality in services or processes which achieve equity and improve the health of the community.”
Defining Quality Improvement in Public Health; Journal of Public Health Management & Practice: January/February 2010 - Volume 16 - Issue 1 - p 5–7, Riley, William J. PhD; Moran, John W. PhD, MBA, CQIA, CQM, CMC; Corso, Liza C. MPA; Beitsch, Leslie M. MD, JD; Bialek, Ronald MPP; Cofsky, Abbey -

Continuous Improvement
The continuous improvement phase of a process is how youmake a change in direction.The change usually is because the process output is deterioratingor customer needs have changed

What Is Quality?
Today the most progressive view of quality is that it is defined entirely by the customer or end user and is based upon that person's evaluation of his or her entire customer experience.
The customer experience is the aggregate of all the Touch Points that customers have with the organization’s product and services, and is by definition a combination of these.
![Page 21: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Deming Cycle – PDCA or PDSA
PDCA was made popular by Dr. Deming who is considered by many to be the father of modern quality control; however it was always referred to by him as the "Shewhart cycle."

Maintenance and Standardization
The Maintenance and Standardization phase of a process is how we hold the gains. If our process is producingthe desired results we standardizewhat we are doing.
![Page 25: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Integrated CycleThe SDCA and PDCA cycles areseparate but rather integrated.Once we have made a successfulchange we standardize and holdthe gain.When the process is not performingcorrectly we go from SDCA to PDCAand once we have the process performing correctly we standardize again.This switching back and forth betweenSDCA and PDCA provides us with the opportunity to keep our processcustomer focused.

Force and Effect
The Force & Effect (F&E) Diagram is designed to identify barriers to agreement among team members concerning an AIM Statement.
The F&E Diagram combines a Force Field and Cause & Effect Diagram.
Instead of having one box on the cause and effect diagram we use a double headed effect.
The first effect (far left) is the current state and the second effect (far right) is the desired future state. In between are branches of main causes that maintain the status quo. Too often we focus only on the causes of the current state without looking at what pushes us to change

AIM Statement Example
Determine if our client education and teaching is effective for positive pregnancy testers in identifying the importance of seeking early prenatal care. Goal is to have 95-100% of our patients will receive prenatal care appointments in 2-3 weeks of positive pregnancy tests from the current level of 65% and 100% of clients will be using Prenatal vitamins which is currently at 70%.
This project will take three months to analyze and develop solutions to trial. The trial period will last three months and then we will analyze the results, determine where we are in achieving our goal , and either standardize the solution or make adjustments or refinements if required.

AIM Statement Example
FOCUSING STATEMENT
Currently we are using 5 different methods to collect mosquitoes within the county. Each of the 5 inspectors/collectors is using a method that best fits their schedule training, and motivation.
This difference may be causing an extreme disparity among the collectors in regard to number of mosquitoes collected. These differences can translate into a lack of data in the respective area.
The lack of data could lead to a use or misuse of control measures for mosquito control when there is an unidentified need.
Lack of control may lead to mosquito borne disease outbreak and an unusually high number of nuisance complaints.
The use or misuse of pesticides or other control measures costs the health department dollars. Also it could have a negative effect in regard to the public’s perception of use of pesticides. The chemicals we use are expensive and if a true measure of mosquito populations could be gained, overuse would be minimized.

AIM Statement Example
AIM STATEMENT
In the coming mosquito seasons, our division needs to focus on ensuring that all the traps are set up in a manner to collect the maximum number of mosquitoes per trap site.
The motivation behind this need is that some states and the EPA are moving to reduce the amounts of pesticide applied. These new laws require applicators to show with set evidence and numbers the need to apply pesticides.
When these guidelines or codes go into effect, there will be harsh penalties for violations.
Furthermore failure to move forward will possibly place the XYZ Health Department in violation. This is in addition to wasted money for over use of pesticides. The implementation of the program can be completed in the next (20XX) mosquito season.

COMPONENTS OF ISSUE STATEMENT
The environmental division has the ability to complete the project with employees already in place. We have complete control over the element.
The project can be completed if the players allow the changes to be made if they put them into practice.
Influence must be used by management to ensure that all collectors are properly executing the project. There should not be any out side influences in effect.
The only element out of our control is the laziness of the collector in ensuring that the trap is set and operating properly.
We need to focus on 1. Knowledge of collector 2. Use of the same water in trap 3. Ensuring batteries last duration of trap cycle 4. Moving to a 1 night trap event 5. Keep the collector motivated 6. Who is your collection substitute?

“If you can't describe what you are doing as a process, you don't know what you're doing.”
W. Edwards Deming
![Page 72: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
W Edwards Deming (1900-1993)"Draw a flowchart for whatever you are doing. Until you do, you do not fully understand what you are doing. You just have a job.“
"The first step in any organization is to draw a flow diagram to show how each component depends on others. Then everyone may understand what their job is. If people do not see the process, they cannot improve it."
![Page 73: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
SIPOC+CMWhat it is:
SIPOC is a data collection form that is used before we start to construct a flow chart since it helps us to gather relevant information about the process.
Assists in gathering information about Suppliers, Inputs, Process, Outputs, and Customer of the process.
SIPOC is high level view of the “As Is” state of a process under investigation.
The C stands for constraints (barriers) facing the system and the M for the measures to be used.
![Page 74: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
SIPOC+CM
When to use it:
When first starting to investigate a process and a team needs to understand the basics that make up the process.
When a team needs a way to get the collective knowledge of the team members about a process recorded in an easy to view format.
When we need to make a concise communication to others about a process and the parameters that it encompasses.
![Page 75: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
SIPOC+CMHow to use it:
On a piece of flip chart paper draw the SIPOC+CM diagram with seven blocks indicating the components of SIPOC+ CM.
Clearly identify the process under study and define the process boundaries (start and end points) so that everyone involved understands the limits of the analysis.
On the SIPOC+CM form identify the data available for each of the following major categories:
Suppliers – who or what (internal or external) provides the raw materials, information, or technology to the process
Inputs – what are the material or information specifications that are needed by the process
Process – a highly level flow chart of the key 5 to 7 core activities that comprise the process. This is a 30,000 foot view of the process. The detail steps will be developed in the flow chart.
Outputs – what the process produces as products, services, or technology
Customers – who are the main users of the process’s output
+ C –constraints facing the system or process
+ M – measures being used or to be used
Review the form for completeness with relevant stakeholders, sponsors, and other interested parties.

Flow Charting
Flow charting is the first step we take in understanding a process
Organized combination of shapes, lines, and text
Flow charts provide a visual illustration, a picture of the steps the process undergoes to complete it's assigned task
From this graphic picture we can see a process and the elements comprising it
Shows how interactions occur
Makes the invisible visible

Flow Charting StepsUse the simplest symbols possible – Post-Its
Make sure every loop has an escape
There is usually only one output arrow out of a process box. Otherwise, it may require a decision diamond.
Trial process flow – walk through people involved in the process to get their comments
Make changes if necessary
Identify time lags and non-value-adding steps.

Constructing a Flow Chart
Asking questions is the key to flow charting a process.
For this process:Who is the customer(s)?Who is the supplier(s) ?What is the first thing that happens? What is the next thing that happens?Where does the input(s) to the process come from? How does the input(s) get to the process? Where does the output(s) of this operation go? Is their anything else that must be done at this point? What is the baseline measurement of this process?

Why Measure?
You can't manage what you don't measure. It is an old management adage that is accurate today.
Unless you measure something you don't know if it is getting better or worse.
You can't manage for improvement if you don't measure to see what is getting better and what isn't.

Measurement
Measurement is critical to performance improvement and is the most difficult part of the process
Start thinking of Measurement at the very beginning of the process.
Ask how can we measure that when developing the AIM Statement?

Develop an improvement theory.
An improvement theory is a statement that articulates the effect that you expect the improvement to have on the problem.
Writing an improvement theory crystallizes what you expect to achieve as a result of your intervention, and documents the connection between the improvement you plan to test and the measurable improvement objective.

Test Methodology
Test method is a definitive procedure that produces a test result.
A test can be considered as technical operation that consists of determination of one or more characteristics of a given product, process or service according to a specified procedure.
The test result can be: qualitative (yes/no)
quantitative (a measured value)
personal observation
output of a precision measuring instrument.

The Public Health Quality Improvement Handbook, R. Bialek, G. Duffy, J. Moran, Quality Press, 2009, p. 147
![Page 108: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
What is the purpose of sampling?
To draw conclusions about populations from samples.
To help us determine a population's characteristics by directly observing only a portion or sample of the population using statistics
We obtain a sample rather than a complete enumeration (a census ) of the population for many reasons:
Economy Timeliness Inaccessibility of some of the population Destructiveness of the observation
![Page 109: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Target Population
The researcher must clearly define the target population.
There are no strict rules to follow, and the researcher must rely on logic and judgment.
The population is defined in keeping with the objectives of the study
![Page 110: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Problem Definition
In sampling, this includes defining the population from which our sample is drawn.
A population can be defined as including all people or items with the characteristic one wishes to understand.
Because there is very rarely enough time or money to gather information from everyone or everything in a population, the goal becomes finding a representative sample (or subset) of that population.
![Page 111: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Sampling Frame
It has the property that we can identify every single element and include any in our sample
The sampling frame must be representative of the population
![Page 112: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Sampling Frame Problems
• 1. Missing elements: Some members of the population are not included in the frame.
• 2. Foreign elements: The non-members of the population are included in the frame.
• 3. Duplicate entries: A member of the population is surveyed more than once.
• 4. Groups or clusters: The frame lists clusters instead of individuals.
![Page 113: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
Sampling MethodsClassified as either Probability or Non-Probability.
Probability samples, each member of the population has a known non-zero probability of being selected.
The advantage of probability sampling is that sampling error can be calculated. Sampling error is the degree to which a sample might differ from the population.
Non-probability sampling, members are selected from the population in some nonrandom manner.
In non-probability sampling, the degree to which the sample differs from the population remains unknown.

• Stratified Sampling
• Convenience Sampling
• Judgment Sampling
• Snowball Sampling

Non-Sampling Error
Non-sampling errors are caused by the mistakes in data processing:
Overcoverage: Inclusion of data from outside of the population.
Undercoverage: Sampling frame does not include elements in the population.
Measurement error: The respondent misunderstand the question.
Processing error: Mistakes in data coding.
Non-response
![Page 116: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
Risks
Type I risk, or alpha risk is the "reasonable doubt." It is the chance of wrongly rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true. In acceptance sampling, it is the producer's risk, or risk of wrongly rejecting a lot that meets requirements.
The Type II risk or beta risk is the chance of accepting the null hypothesis when it is false. The "consumer's risk" is the Type II risk for an acceptance sampling plan. It is the chance of passing a lot that does not meet the requirements.
Type I risk – convict an innocent defendantType II risk – acquit a guilty defendant.

Problem Solving
When confronted with a problem most people like to tackle the obvious symptom and fix it
This often results in more problems
Using a systematic approach to analysis the problem and find the root cause is more efficient and effective
Symptom – sign or indication
Cause – whatever makes something happen

Solution and Effect Diagrams
Cautions:
Do not jump to quickly to Solution and Effect
Use after a detailed analysis of “Cause”
If you are still listing Causes – not enough detail on the Cause and Effect Diagram
Ask if the proposed solution(s) will improve the effect or cause more problems

What Can Go Wrong? - PDPC
Ask the killer question
Do not be surprised by the amount of problems a group can generate about a solution they have devised
People thrive on failure
Everyone knows something will go wrong – it is not “If” but “When”
Remember the National Lampoon’s Griswold vacation to Walley World?
![Page 153: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/153.jpg)
What Can Go Wrong?
If we wanted this to fail, how could we accomplish that?
What assumptions are we making that could turn out to be wrong?
What has been our experience in similar situations in the past?
Does this depend on actions, conditions or events?
Are these controllable or uncontrollable?
Decide how practical each countermeasure is by using criteria such as:
Cost
time required
ease of implementation
effectiveness

Data Collection Questions
Before collecting data we must answer the following questions:
What is the purpose for collecting this data? What type of data is going to be collected?Where will the data be collected?Who will collect the data?When will they collect the data?How will they be trained to collect the data?What will we do with it after we collect the data?How will we summarize and present the data?
![Page 167: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/167.jpg)
Getting Good Data
Understand the process being studied – walk it
Make the collection simple
Define where the data will be collected – collection points
Use checksheets and checklists to help
Minimize the “other” category – by good classifications - too often the largest bar on a chart
Establish collection rules – sampling
![Page 168: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/168.jpg)
Getting Poor Data
Lack of training on what to doUnclear directionsAmbiguous terminology – need yearly data – fiscal or calendar year?Different units of measures – 9/23/99 – Mars spacecraft was a $125m lost because it missed entry by 100km – NASA used the metric system and Lockheed used the English units – inches versus metersMathematical errors – rounding, calculation, order of calculations, etc.

Descriptive Statistics
The majority of our data collection will be done through sampling
Populations versus Samples
Population parameters: μ and σ
Sample statistics: Х and s
![Page 171: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/171.jpg)
Descriptive Statistics
Measures of Central Tendency:
Mean – arithmetic average of the items sampled
Median – middle value in the sample
Mode – the one that most frequently occurs
![Page 172: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/172.jpg)
Descriptive Statistics
These statistical measures help us to understand how the data is distributed:
Symmetrical – normal – bell shaped
Skewed – left or right
Rectangular
Always plot the data and confirm the shape of the data
![Page 173: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/173.jpg)
Descriptive Statistics
“A central theme of the statistical approach to data analysis is this:
Variability always exists. No experiment can be repeated exactly.
Variability can never be totally eliminated.”

![Page 174: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/174.jpg)
Descriptive Statistics – Variation
Variation is everywhere
It is found in the output of any process of manufacturing, service, or administrative
But variation is not all bad since it always displays a pattern or a distribution of itself
These patterns or distributions can tell us a great deal about the process itself and the causes of problems found in the process
Histograms help us identify and interpret these patterns
![Page 175: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/175.jpg)
Descriptive Statistics
Measures of Variability: Dispersion
Range – Highest Value – Lowest Value
Variance – how much spread in our sample data - scatter
Standard Deviation – dispersion of a random variable about its mean
![Page 176: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/176.jpg)
Descriptive Statistics
The measures of central tendency and the measures of variability when compared to historical data can help us determine if:
The center of the process has shifted
The variability of the process has increased
Combination of both of the above
![Page 177: Utah Association of Local Health Departments Quality Improvement Workshop September 21 st and 22 nd, 2011.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b7330550346a6148b5057/html5/thumbnails/177.jpg)
Descriptive Statistics
When constructing data tables and graphs:
Do not throw any data awayKnow what type of data you are dealing with – qualitative or quantitativeKnow if the data is discrete or continuous Label everything appropriatelyKeep it clear and simple

History
The first Gantt Chart was developed by Karol Adamiecki, who called it a Harmonogram
Because Adamiecki did not publish his chart until 1931, this famous chart bears Henry Gantt's name (1861–1919) designed his chart in 1910

Gantt Charts
A Gantt chart is a matrix diagram
The vertical axis lists all the tasks to be performed for a project
Each row contains a single task identification
The horizontal axis is headed by columns indicating estimated task duration in hours, days, weeks, months, etc.

It is not unusual to get so caught up in the solving of the problem that we forget to accurately document what we did, when we did it, and what it accomplished.

Documenting The Impact Of QI
A quality improvement team moves quickly on its quest to gather data and solve problems but can easily delay recording what the interventions actually accomplished.
It is difficult to recall or recreate history since people involved in the project usually have sketchy and conflicting memories of what was done, when it was done and the associated impact.

Documenting The Impact Of QI
Start as soon as you have developed the AIM statement.
Develop a process by which you can document what quality improvements take place”
What they were?
When they where implemented?
What change resulted?
How much was the change?
Other questions?

Documenting The Impact Of QI
It is easier to document in real time then to recreate history.
Besides being a more accurate description of what has happened it also gives the quality improvement team a vehicle to start making predictions as to what

Documenting Unintended Consequences
Unintended Consequences may happen.
Being prepared for Unintended Consequences makes the process of dealing with them easier and quicker.

Unintended Consequences
Often “Unintended Consequences” arise from some of the interventions. Many could not be foreseen since they are a result of the interaction of the intervention with the process where it is being implemented.
Unintended consequences happen frequently in quality improvement projects and these need to be tracked along with the interventions.
Some of these unintended consequences may result in the quality improvement team developing a sub-AIM statement which will also have to be tracked and monitored.
