Person Centred Care: Blending improvement methods and business thinking into practical steps

Description
This one-hour webinar will consider the redesign of the patients journey and experience. Using theories that rethink the relationship between provider and ‘customer or client’, we will explore co- producing better care relevant to any speciality, environment or healthcare system. This will include some practical examples learners can adapt to their own situation. By the end of the session learners will be familiar with a framework that can enable teams to work with patients to build safer, more effective and efficient care that is focused on what matters to patients and families as well as excellent performance from the team.

 
Learning objectives

In this session participants will learn about:

  • The design of the patient’s journey and experience.
  • Practical ways to introduce co-production in your setting.
  • An overall framework that can help teams to work more effectively with patients and their families.

Nourhan Kawtharani


Nourhan, a quality and safety coordinator with eight years of experience in ambulatory healthcare in Lebanon, aims to deepen her understanding of the systemic and holistic approach to healthcare through this fellowship.

She aims to identify gaps and develop tailored interventions that address specific contexts rather than applying general solutions. Engaging with diverse professionals and perspectives during this educational journey will expand the application of these concepts across different cultural settings.

Nourhan emphasizes the importance of promoting a culture of continuous learning and improvement within healthcare institutions, considering it a vital leadership responsibility to integrate quality and safety initiatives into the organizational culture.

Nourhan's commitment to patient safety and quality management includes sourcing practical resources and transforming insights into actionable knowledge to drive continued progress in healthcare practices and outcomes.

Elom is passionate about improving quality of care and patient safety outcomes.

In view of this, he has had the opportunity to work in various capacities with various organisations including AfIHQSA, WHO, UNICEF and others undertaking research, supporting the development of national quality policies and strategies, facilitating the establishment of quality governance systems across all the levels of the health sector and building capacity of national and sub-national quality leads/teams to institutionalize the practice of quality and patient safety across the continent.

Dr Rhoda Kalondu


Rhoda is the Head of the Patient Safety Unit at Kenyatta Hospital in Nairobi and wants to use this Fellowship to learn how to establish a culture of safety and develop systems for assessment and analysis at her institution, and more widely. As well as this, Rhoda intends to develop and execute an intervention to improve patient safety in Kenyatta National Hospital.

It is one thing to institute measures and processes for improvement, but quite another to change the culture of an environment. Rhoda's ambition to lead others in this change inspired the panel.
