The Somerset Team are looking forward to your submissions for presentations in the regional QI session on Thursday afternoon.

 

Teams submitting the best posters/ projects will be invited to give a 10 minute oral presentation summarising their project (max 10 slides, 10 min presentation plus 5 min for questions).

 

There will be prizes awarded for the best presentations.

 

This is open to anyone in the Southwest undertaking a QI project within ICU, including trainees, AHPs, nurses, ACCPs and students. We would really like to share a range of projects and ideas from across the region.

 

You can submit either a poster or a short abstract (not more than 500 words) outlining your projects. The deadline for submission is Thursday 1st May 2024. Judging of the content will be completed by 26th May allowing those invited for oral presentation time to prepare.

 

Submissions should outline:

• Why you undertook this project?

• What you did and how you did it?

• What you found, what were the barriers that you had to overcome?

• What benefit this had for your unit, colleagues, patients, relatives?

• Advice for other teams to be able to do something similar.
