Q Initiative recruitment – south London

What is Q?

Q is an initiative connecting people who have improvement expertise across the UK. With almost 2000 members it continues to grow and by 2020 we anticipate a community of many more thousands.

Q’s mission is to foster continuous and sustainable improvement in heath and care, creating opportunities for people to come together as an improvement community to share ideas, enhance skills and collaborate to make health and care better.

It is not a taught programme, but a network of support for those already knowledgeable in undertaking improvement. It’s designed to complement and connect existing communities, initiatives and networks.

Q is being delivered by the Health Foundation and supported and co-funded by NHS Improvement.
