  3. The purpose and objectives of QD...The challenge we faced: • The need to describe the intervention – in order to test it (MRC Framework – Evaluation of complex interventions) • The need to get patients engaged in learning (Ellis et al 2004 Meta-analysis and Meta-regression of Educational Programmes in Diabetes) • The need to be clear about what we were expecting the educators to do - in order to specifically train then them to do it • The recognition that training alone rarely results in healthcare professional behaviour change (Pill et al 1999Journal of Advanced Nursing; Anderson and Funnell 2005 Patient Ed & Counselling;)

  4. How long has QD been in place? • Since the start.......

  10. DESMOND Quality Development Cycle Define criteria and standards Identify Changes Data Collection Assess performance against criteria and standards

  11. Data Collection • Self and Peer Refection • Using DOT (Desmond Observational Tool) and DOS (Desmond observational sheet) • External Observational Visit and feedback x2

  12. QD Assessments so far.. • September 2005 – November 2008 • 21 Active Assessors • 503 trained educators : 363 trained over 12 months ago and 140 within last 12 months. 229 Educators are in the ‘active’ QD process 41 Educators are ‘accredited’ 10 Educators have had 2nd visits and are being ‘revisited’

  13. Numbers reaching percent of targets – the training works!

  14. Identify Changes Educator • Reflection, feedback and action plan from external visit • Ongoing support to maintain behavior change Training • Changed delivery • More practice with action planning • Mirrors the delivery of programme – modeling key processes • QD informs programme development alongside research and biomedical outcomes Standards and Criteria • Describe educator behaviours more clearly

  15. The value in seeking to support behaviour change in educators “ less educator talk in a session leads to greater change in participants beliefs about their diabetes” Skinner et al., Diabetic Medicine 2008

  16. Challenges • Training …. Of assessors (we are now considering how to assess consistency across assessors) and of educators..in peer and self reflection • Organising….people coming forward for QD and matching assessors to sites • Analysing….data • Making Changes….what are the right next steps? • Making decisions if an assessment does not ‘meet the criteria’…role of the TSG • More and more educators being trained….

  17. In conclusion • The DESMOND QD process is not just a check list for ‘adherence’ but a complex ‘well’ designed part of the development programme for ongoing diabetes educator training • The DESMOND QD process is a key factor in the development of reflective practice in educators and trainers. • The DESMOND QD process allows for ongoing refinement of the patient programme • BUT the approach we have taken is complex and demanding and we are seeking ways to refine the processes without losing the observation/feedback and reflection....
