Quality improvement from theory to practice: A case of successful implementation of plan, do, study, act model in improving surgical acute clinic services

Aim: In an understaffed, under-resourced, overwhelmed NHS, quality improvement initiatives are essential. Quality models, such as the ‘Plan, Do, Study, Act’ (PDSA) model, have thus been widely implemented. This project aimed to improve our acute surgical clinic services by a clinician-led redesign of a service delivery system using the PDSA model.
