This month’s tool: Simple Rules

In complex systems simple rules or underlying ways of thinking govern the way we do things. Sometimes, these can block improvement and occasionally we need to break them.

See the NHS Institute’s Simple Rules tool. See also their Process Mapping and PDSA tools which form part of the process of Simple Rules.
This bulletin is brought to you by Library and Knowledge Services. It aims to keep you up-to-date with improvement and QIPP issues. At the beginning of each month, a librarian will update the bulletin with relevant information published in the preceding month. If there are areas you think we also need to cover, please let us know.
