Every year in your training you will be expected to complete some quality improvement work.
Quality improvement activity
- These are small projects, usually completed during your ST1 hospital post and final ST3 year in general practice. A QIA can be part of a larger study or departmental project. You need to complete 2 of these during your training – they are recorded as log entries.
- Information on the type of project and the requirments for QIA can be found here.
Quality improvement project
- This is a larger project that needs to satisfy certain criteria and be entered on a specific template in your e-portfolio. The QIP is then marked by your ES. The QIP takes time and is ideally completed in your ST2 GP placement.
