SUSQI PROJECT RESOURCES

Step by Step Resources

These resources, based on the SusQI framework, can be used to help you to add sustainable healthcare principles into your own QI project by assessing quality and value through the lens of a “triple bottom line”.   The tools can be used to complement the courses at the Centre for Sustainable Healthcare.

 

Use the tabs below to help you on your own SusQI journey. These steps can be integrated into existing QI teaching frameworks such as the Model for Improvement Framework.
