• CQI is intended to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of services provided

• CQI will help us become a “Learning Organization” and assists us in meeting the G2 Accreditation Standard

Monthly Management Reports (Pink Books)

Monthly publication available on the intranetregarding:

- CA/N- FCS- FCOOHC- IIHS

Page 8: The Continuous Quality Improvement Process Empowering staff to develop local level solutions

Peer Record Reviews

• Peer to Peer Review which ensures essential service components exist in the record

• Intended to be supportive in nature, findings are to be shared with staff

• Worker gains new perspective and reviewer’s knowledge and skills are enhanced

• 10% of CA/N, FCS, and FCOOHC cases are reviewed

Page 9: The Continuous Quality Improvement Process Empowering staff to develop local level solutions

Consumer Grievance Data

• Structured so service delivery issues can be addressed at the most local level possible

• Allows families the opportunity to express concerns about dissatisfaction with agency action or behaviors

• Aggregate grievance information should be reviewed during CQI meetings

Page 10: The Continuous Quality Improvement Process Empowering staff to develop local level solutions

Practice Development Reviews (PDRs)

• Used to examine outcomes for individual children and families and the service system as a whole

• Combination of qualitative and quantitative data

• Very small sample – 12 to 24 cases

• Frequency yet to be determined

The Survey of Organizational Excellence

Page 14: The Continuous Quality Improvement Process Empowering staff to develop local level solutions

Underlying Assumptions of CQI• The CQI process involves

multiple levels of team meetings

• Every person is part of a CQI Team

• Each team sends one representative to the next level meeting

• All CQI meetings and team members are of equal importance

• 90% of the issues are resolved at the level that first identified the issue

1st Level

2nd Level

3rd Level

State

Page 15: The Continuous Quality Improvement Process Empowering staff to develop local level solutions

Purpose of CQI Meetings

• Opportunity create solutions for problems

• Creative action planning with colleagues

• Innovative implementation of staff ideas

• Starting where we really are (honestly) and building on it

• Taking full advantage of opportunity to be creative and achieve the mission

Non-Purposeof CQI Meetings• Gripe session

• Social Hour

• Passing the buck for solving problems to someone else

• Using the time to simply “bash” current data or people

• “This is just another passing fad – I’ll wait it out and it will go away”
