The aim of NHS Lothian’s Quality Improvement Strategy is to improve patient’s experience and outcome of care whilst systematically identifying and eliminating waste.
There is considerable national and international evidence that better quality, safer care is more efficient and delivers financial benefits. Through a range of quality improvement programmes we will support staff to provide person centred safe effective and efficient patient care to every patient every time.
This will be demonstrated by:
- Reduced mortality
- Reduced avoidable harm
- Improved patient experience
- Delivery of patient based care.
- Safely reducing costs and improving productivity.
