Evaluating Impact course for Dental Practice
This session will explore how outcomes are measured and evaluated in practice, how to take corrective action where necessary and how to justify your decisions.
Learning Objectives
This session will support you to:
- Test and evaluate new service options
- Standardise and promote new approaches
- Overcome barriers to implementation
- Formally and informally disseminate good practice
Within healthcare services, standards are used to ensure high quality patient care. However, implementing standards without measuring their effectiveness would not be an efficient use of resources. Therefore robust mechanisms of evaluation are required to ensure that standards are having an appropriate impact on service delivery.
Before commencing this session you should complete sessions:
- 1.1 Demonstrating Personal Qualities: Developing Self-awareness
- 1.2 Demonstrating Personal Qualities: Managing Yourself
- 1.3 Demonstrating Personal Qualities: Continuing Personal Development
- 1.4 Demonstrating Personal Qualities: Acting with Integrity
