Using the features outlined on the previous page, evaluate how well your practice pays attention to its quality culture.
Use the following questions to help with the assessment:
- Does your practice actively develop a culture of quality improvement?
- What are the current barriers?
- What must change to create a focus?
- How can you personally contribute?
- What resources are needed?
Reflect on your answers to help you understand your practice’s current quality culture.
Remember developing a culture is a team effort, but it is good to appreciate how you could personally influence your team. A quality culture cannot be copied and pasted, it needs dedicated time and commitment to fully mature.
