Format: Lecture

Stream: Building Capability and Leadership

Content filters: Discussion of improvement methodology

Ever wondered how to build a network of clinicians who can lead quality and safety? Nested within a Clinician Engagement Framework the Safer Care Victoria (SCV) Clinical Fellows program provided mid-career clinicians with an opportunity to drive system wide change alongside developing leadership and improvement skills. We will share insights and outcomes of the programs first two cohorts and how we believe it will contribute to better outcomes for Victorians.

After this session, participants will be able to:

• Reflect on the model for clinician engagement used at SCV


• Utilise Improvement Advisors and coaches to develop a clinician cohort


• Understand what works and what doesn’t in building clinician capability to lead improvement
