Factsheet: Plan-Do-Study-Act Cycle
Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI)
Factsheet provides a summary of a popular quality improvement model known as the "Plan-Do-Study-Act" cycle. Community-based organizations can use this model to test a small change and evaluate its effectiveness and any lessons learned before implementing the change more widely. For example, organizations might test an outreach strategy with a segment of their population before scaling it to see if it needs any tweaks first.
