Yesterday, our team of four raised £2,000 for @actionmedres by doing the #racethesun adventure event in the Brecon Beacons. We were cycling, canoeing and hiking for 9 and 3/4 hours!
"Best practice" doesn't work in most change situations in health & care. Best practice works in simple, stable scenarios but we are mostly working in complex systems. This means that yes, we can learn from the practices of others, but we have to:
1) Bring in a diversity of perspectives and experiences
2) Test out new practices experimentally
3) Create learning loops
4) Push authority down to the people who need to act on the information ("disintermediation") https://t.co/rWXGG8wyfT By @jbriselli Graphic adapted from @TheCynefinCo
We can learn a lot from North East & North Cumbria integrated care system @NENC_NHS & their approach to improvement. Their goal isn't to "be the best" but to "be the best at getting better". This helps create a shared mission to build capability for change & to always keep improving. Graphic by @quotedvisually. Inspiration from @samanthallen & @annielaverty.
