Our approach

There is a commitment, both at national level (via the NHS Improvement Framework) and within our own Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care System (ICS) strategy to work towards a consistent approach to improvement.

We believe that this will help to support deliberate, coordinated and inclusive Improvement

Across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire ICS, we will support this consistent approach by sharing Improvement resources, training, and news via these web pages, by connecting colleagues via our Organisational Development (OD) and Improvement Community of Practice, by our visible support and impact within large scale Improvement projects and by our commitment to share learning.

Our approach is grounded in the Model for Improvement, the basis for our system Improvement training offer. You can learn more about this approach from these short videos from the Institute of Healthcare Improvement.

To do this we will:

Build improvement capability

Via accessible and equitable
training offers.

Have a shared understanding

And a systematic approach to tackling complex problems.

Have a thriving culture

That supports improvements
to happen.

Give everyone an equal voice

And the power to make improvements.
