Role of regulation:• to provide assurance to stakeholders that
services meet certain standards…
• to establish mechanisms for holding organizations/individuals to account…

why have regulation?• many organisations have huge, unrealised
opportunities for improvement (Berwick 1996)
• quality of services varies widely from organisation to organisation and even within organisations (Brook et al 2000)
• required changes are often difficult/slow (Ferlie and Shortell 2001)

Improving Performance? The adoption and Implementation of Quality systems in U.K Nonprofits.
Cairns et al. 2005
“staff also did not always see the
relationship between the
quality system adopted and their
own work”
“just ticking boxes”
“Time is a particular
problem if people see quality as something separate; this makes them begrudge the time or reluctant to
devote the resources to it”
Where “quality remained an extra, to be worked on as time allowed ... reported only limited benefits”
We are all in the
same boat

Measure – Selecting priority issue
3) Management did not see how PQASSO could help with a HIQA inspection
2) Management may not have spent the time to engage and empower all staff at all levels
1) There is a lack of understanding of how PQASSO and HIQA are related.

Meeting other Champions Time RequiredExchanging Ideas Distance to travel
Networking Evidence is different for the organisationsAllows you to benchmark
Progress Difficult to attend meetings
