Educating and
Equipping

Whole-System Education provides the foundation blocks on which PACE Setter quality improvements can be built and, ultimately, shared.

Learning together as a team, and alongside parents and other key stakeholders, equips an organisation to develop new skills and implement new systems multi-dimensionally.  Innovative educational programmes recognise and meet the needs of those with a variety of learning preferences.

Some of the best educating and equipping initiatives from award winners included…

  • Embed informative parent-friendly videos as high visibility link on Practice website and waiting room screens
  • Head Injury Pathway training;
  • Visiting primary schools to talk to children about common minor illnesses
  • Non clinical staff training on CYP issues to ensure all staff on message
  • Receptionist Training on Red-Amber-Green (RAG) Triage Systems
  • Awareness raising of all staff on patient feedback
  • Staff undergoing E-Learning on Fever, Diarrhoea & Vomiting and Bronchiolitis
