You need feedback systems
But you know your own business, don’t you?You have your finger on the pulse?……Why focus on ‘systems’?
![Page 9: Care2 improve](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58a5bbfb1a28ab0b068b5789/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Perception! Who is right? An elephant is…
Thin like a rope
Thick and sturdy like a pillar
Thick, strong and flexible like a fireman’s hose
Smooth, cool and shiny
Huge like a house

Halo and Horns
• People see the same thing differently
• The last thing they saw or heard
• Prejudices
• Favouritism
• Misunderstanding
![Page 11: Care2 improve](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58a5bbfb1a28ab0b068b5789/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Cutting to the chase
• Loads of management models of quality.• All involve robust feedback mechanisms
• CQC have a feedback model• Local authorities have a feedback model• NHS choices have a feedback model
• LA or CQC feedback can damage your business
![Page 12: Care2 improve](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58a5bbfb1a28ab0b068b5789/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
You need feedback mechanisms that
– Isolate and measure critical performance indicators
– Deal with perceptions and the halo / horns bias– Provide accurate, measurable results– Are objective and verifiable– Are reliable– Are a tool that will help you prioritise and make
decisions
