In the PHASES program, there are many practical ways practices across primary care can use their data to identify patients at risk of cardiovascular disease and take structured action using the purpose-built QI tools.
Quality improvement can help your practice move from identifying risk to embedding prevention into routine workflows.
With the right tools and processes in place, practice teams can more easily identify patients who may benefit from review, support timely recall and follow-up, and strengthen preventive care over time.
The PHASES QI suite of tools includes:
- PHASES CVD Quality Improvement Toolkit: A practical guide to support primary care providers at improving cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes as a CQI activity.
- PDSA Template: A fillable PDF – that used the Model for Improvement (Mfl) as the tool for developing testing and implementing change.
- PHASES Mini Audit / Audit Activity Template: This template helps systematically review aspects of clinical or practice performance against established best practice guidelines or standards.
- Driving Quality Improvement in General Practice webinar: part of the PHASES statewide webinar series, catchup on this session, and self-claim RACGP and ACRRM points.
