🌟 Celebrating our Improvement Champions! 🌟
Colleagues from across the Trust came together for our latest Shared Learning Forum – a chance to share ideas, celebrate progress and learn from one another.
This month's Improvement Champions were recognised for some brilliant work:
🌟 Megan Binns – reducing gynaecology cancer wait times against national targets
🌟 Hannah Hunter and Helen Kennedy – tackling hospital-acquired deconditioning
🌟 Our Maternity, Women & Children's team – developing a maternity passport and learning disability / neurodiversity pathway with Community Trust colleagues
The day also included spotlight presentations, training, and plans for our upcoming Quality Improvement week.

Learning improvement through a hands-on approach!

On 9th July 2026, Steph delivered Improvement Training as part of the Leading Self programme, where participants explored the use of Plan, Do, Study, Act (PDSA) cycles through a fun and interactive Mr Potato Head exercise.

The activity helped trainees understand how small tests of change can be used to learn, adapt and improve processes in a practical and engaging way.

A fantastic session with great participation and plenty of learning along the way!

On Tuesday, Lucy and Gemma delivered Managers Essentials training to a fantastic group of colleagues from WUTH and WCHC.

As part of the session, participants took part in the interactive Coin Spinning PDSA Game, exploring how small, simple tests of change can drive meaningful improvements in their teams and services. 🪙

The activity brought the Plan, Do, Study, Act (PDSA) cycle to life, helping managers build confidence in testing ideas on a small scale before wider implementation.

Thank you to everyone who took part and contributed to a great session focused on continuous improvement and learning. 👏

We’re proud to have launched our Pressure Ulcer Reduction Quality Improvement Programme this month - bringing together colleagues from across hospital and community services to improve patient care and safety.
Over 50 staff from a wide range of roles and teams came together to share expertise, identify what we do well, and agree practical steps to reduce pressure ulcers and enhance patient experience.
Key themes from the day included:
✅ Earlier identification of patients at risk
✅ Strong teamwork between clinical teams, patients and families
✅ Improving communication across services
✅ Ensuring the right equipment and support is available at the right time
The programme will now move into the implementation phase, with teams testing new ideas, sharing learning and continuing to work collaboratively to make care even safer.
👏 A huge thank you to everyone who contributed - this is a great example of how working together makes a real difference.
