Quality improvement is most effective when it is embedded within services and shaped by the people delivering and receiving care. KQIP works directly with kidney teams and networks across the UK, providing the expertise, structure and practical support needed to develop and deliver meaningful improvement.
Our programme managers work with services to identify local priorities, build quality improvement skills, support projects and use data and measurement to understand the impact of change. This regional work sits alongside national KQIP projects, which bring services together to address shared challenges and develop approaches that can be tested, adapted and shared more widely.
KQIP builds on existing quality improvement activity rather than replacing it, working collaboratively with healthcare professionals, people living with kidney disease and partner organisations to support improvements that can be embedded into everyday practice.
KQIP reports to the UKKA Board of Trustees and is led by our Clinical Leadership Team.
