1 Improvig Quality i Physiological Services, IQIPS Deliverig quality physiological services
2 What is IQIPS? IQIPS is a professioally led programme with the aim of improvig services, care ad safety for patiets udergoig physiological tests, examiatios ad procedures. The programme offers the beefits of sharig best practice ad the opportuity to ehace efficiecy with evidece for local leverage. Accreditatio also brigs atioal recogitio to the service with a badge of quality. 2 IQIPS puts Physiological Scietific Services at the leadig edge of cotiuous quality improvemet ad quality assurace i the NHS. It provides a mark of quality for commissioers, providers ad users of service with patiet quality outcomes at its core. Professor Sue Hill OBE Chief Scietific Officer for Eglad
3 What is UKAS accreditatio for IQIPS? The Uited Kigdom Accreditatio Service (UKAS) delivers ad maages formal third-party assessmets ad accreditatio agaist the Improvig Quality i Physiological Services (IQIPS) stadards for the IQIPS accreditatio programme. UKAS accreditatio provides idepedet ad impartial recogitio that the physiological service provider has objectively demostrated their competece, as defied by the IQIPS stadards, to a team of traied assessors. Accreditatio gives the people usig physiological services, the patiets ad their relatives, cofidece i the diagosis ad care they receive. Clearly defied, professioally led stadards form the corerstoe of both high quality healthcare ad UKAS accreditatio. Therefore NHS ad idepedet providers are seekig UKAS accreditatio as formal ackowledgemet that they meet defied quality stadards ad are deliverig high quality services for patiets. The Royal College of Physicias (RCP), a strog supporter of multi-professioal workig, hosts the IQIPS programme, develops ad maitais the IQIPS stadards supported by a expert group of healthcare scietists, patiets, doctors ad other professioals ivolved i physiological services ad maages the quality assurace of the programme. These stadards describe a good...the formalisig of our quality measures ad the accreditatio process, has give us the opportuity to chage what we already do ad improve further o it. Marti Aderso, Advaced Practitioer i Audiology Bolto NHS Foudatio Trust physiological service provider with the capability to esure that all patiets cosistetly receive high quality diagosis ad care, delivered by competet staff workig i safe eviromets. UKAS accreditatio for IQIPS is ope to service providers i physiological services that have successfully completed ad cotiue to maitai the IQIPS Self-Assessmet ad Improvemet Tool (IQIPS SAIT) requiremets. The programme is desiged for eight disciplies: Audiology Cardiac physiology Gastro-Itestial physiology Neurophysiology Ophthalmic ad Visio sciece Respiratory ad Sleep physiology Urodyamics Vascular sciece Achievig UKAS accreditatio assures our patiets, referrers ad commissioers that we are providig a quality service. The process ivolved a huge amout of work, but supported by the UKAS team, has resulted i improved service quality, patiet experiece ad patiet care. Our team is ow stroger ad more efficiet with a shared commitmet to quality care ad cotiuig service improvemet. Heather Day-Lascelles, Head of Audiology Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foudatio Trust 3
4 Why should physiological services participate i the IQIPS programme? Become part of a professioally-led programme with the aim of improvig quality i physiological services Gai access to the IQIPS quality improvemet programme ad the resources available to services who register for the programme (e.g. the self assessmet ad improvemet web tool SAIT ad Kowledge Maagemet System KMS) Raise ad maitai high quality across all sites where physiological diagostics services are delivered Take part i a IQIPS cesus twice a year which will eable services to idetify areas of stregth ad weakess Share good practice Receive formal accreditatio by UKAS Patiets, professioals ad commissioers will beefit from high quality services ad will be able to make iformed decisios about services that are formally accredited by the IQIPS programme 4 Why should physiological services gai UKAS accreditatio? UKAS accreditatio cofirms professioally-led cliical goverace stadards, raises the level of competecy, ehaces the credibility of the service amogst patiets, ad assures those who fud the services. Physiological services ca expect UKAS accreditatio to: Support a focus o patiet safety ad high quality of care Raise local stadards ad support cotiuous improvemet Provide third-party cofirmatio of good practice Ehace efficiecy ad value for moey Act as a leverage for chage, improve staff motivatio ad sharig best practice Icrease cofidece i the service UKAS staff were very friedly ad helpful, before, durig ad after the assessmet process. It is a real achievemet to have our accreditatio ad all our staff feel valued by the recogitio of our high stadard of care. Keri Barker, Adult Cliical Lead Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foudatio Trust
5 Stadards eed to be formulated to promote the likelihood of the service beig delivered safely ad effectively, to be clear about what has to be doe to comply, to be iformed by a evidece base ad to be effectively measurable. Robert Fracis QC, Chairma, Mid Staffordshire NHS Foudatio Trust Public Iquiry Report, 2013 IQIPS Stadards ad IQIPS SAIT The IQIPS stadards are clearly laid out ad easy to uderstad. They cover key expectatios of a competet physiological service across four quality domais: Cliical to promote the service s role i rapid ad accurate diagosis ad treatmet Patiet experiece to esure that service delivery is patietfocused ad respectful of the idividual ad their specific requiremets Facilities, resources ad workforce to esure that adequate resources are provided ad used effectively to offer a safe, efficiet, comfortable ad accessible service Safety to esure that services provide the highest level of safety for patiets, staff ad others who come ito cotact with the service. Spread across these four quality domais are curretly 26 stadards each of which addresses a key aspect ecessary for the provisio of high quality physiological services. Each stadard is accompaied by detailed professioal guidace o what is required i order to achieve it. The physiological service must first successfully complete the IQIPS SAIT, a olie self-assessmet, i the relevat specialism before makig a applicatio to UKAS for formal third-party accreditatio agaist the IQIPS stadards. The IQIPS SAIT is admiistered by the RCP, as part of the IQIPS programme. The RCP ca provide support to help you through your SAIT, icludig discussio with services iterested i the programme. The SAIT plays a importat role throughout the programme pathway with its two stage cycle: the pre-accreditatio stage (i.e. registratio, access to the SAIT, quality improvemet ad readiess for UKAS accreditatio) ad the accreditatio stage (i.e. cotiuous quality improvemet o SAIT, accreditatio assessmet, surveillace ad re-assessmet work). Quality improvemet o the SAIT cotiues after accreditatio, whilst the level of the stadard is reviewed o a o-goig basis. To summarise, the purpose of the SAIT is to: improve the quality of services, iitiate collectig evidece, cosider how policies ad procedures apply to the IQIPS stadard ad assess readiess for accreditatio. The SAIT is available to services throughout the IQIPS accreditatio pathway. The Kowledge Maagemet System (KMS) is available o the SAIT web based tool ad cotais liks to guidelies, documets ad good practice. To fid out more about the RCP ad the requiremets for the IQIPS SAIT please go to the RCP IQIPS website at: The work required to achieve accreditatio caot be uderestimated but it is so worthwhile it demostrates to patiets ad commissioers our capability, competece ad commitmet to providig audiology services. The whole team felt a great sese of achievemet whe we achieved our accreditatio. Toy Kay, Head of Audiology Services Aitree Uiversity Hospital NHS Foudatio Trust 35
6 UKAS assessmets ad accreditatio your key to deliverig quality physiological services UKAS assessmets are coducted by teams of traied assessors, ormally exteral peers from the particular physiological specialism ad led by a UKAS Assessmet Maager. The assessmet team takes a holistic approach to determie the physiological service s overall ability to cosistetly deliver the best possible diagosis ad care to its patiets ad users. As expected i healthcare, the accreditatio process is rigorous; however, all physiological service providers who have achieved UKAS accreditatio believe it is worthwhile ad that it has stregtheed overall service performace. The structured UKAS process ivolves a iitial assessmet cosistig of a off-site examiatio of service policies ad procedural documets, followed by o-site observatio of practice, equipmet, eviromet ad iterviews with key persoel ad patiets. Physiological services that meet the requiremets of the IQIPS stadards are grated UKAS accreditatio for a period of four years. To maitai accreditatio the service must cotiue to demostrate satisfactory performace at aual surveillace assessmets. Further iformatio about the UKAS accreditatio process ca be foud throughout this brochure ad olie: The accreditatio process is oe that requires cosiderable effort, but if shared across the whole team it empowers everyoe to feel that it is worthwhile. Ideed this empowermet re-eergised the team to look at existig practices more critically ad where appropriate, implemet ew ways of workig Marti Aderso, Advaced Practitioer i Audiology Bolto NHS Foudatio Trust 6
7 ...the accreditatio process was challegig, but provided a good opportuity to esure that all our services, policies ad procedures are compliat with the latest cliical, legal ad regulatory stadards ad good practice. We were impressed by the professioalism of the UKAS team they were very thorough but remaied positive ad costructive throughout ad all their fidigs were justified ad clearly explaied. Jae Shaw, Chief Executive, Actio for Deafess UKAS Workshop Preparatio for Accreditatio Workshop (fee payable for idividual attedees) If your physiological service has bee or is participatig i the IQIPS SAIT ad iteds to make a formal applicatio for UKAS accreditatio, you may fid it useful to sed a represetative to a 1 day Preparatio for Accreditatio Workshop.
