Benefits of CQI
• Ownership of Program Objectives– Brings about changes in attitudes toward the program.
Employees can see how a set of objectives helps to identify program success or indications that the program is moving in the right direction.
• Inclusiveness/Consistency– Implementation of the program on an organizational-wide
level promotes a feeling of inclusiveness in the organization. Employees can feel part of the team; having similar experiences, using the same CQI tools, as well as organizational wide training.

Benefits of CQI
• Improved Communication/Teamwork– Quarterly program manger meetings involve sharing of
information among programs. Program staff can offer suggestions on interventions for opportunities in other areas to assist in needed improvement. This also fosters teamwork. Reporting format also improves communication throughout the organization.
• Stakeholder Perception– Reporting of trended information allows stakeholders to see
performance levels on a routine basis. They can see that the organization sets goals, evaluates data collected and reviews the impact on organizational programs.

Benefits of CQI
• Proactive vs. Reactive– Performance programs places the organization in a
proactive mode. Programs are aggressively monitored which assists with detecting problems in a timely fashion. Analysis of data helps to distinguish between acceptable performance levels.

Annual Evaluation
• Conduct an Annual EvaluationAll program areas will do an annual evaluation of all of the goals and
objectives established. Each objective will be evaluated to determine its success.
If an objective did not achieve success, information is reported on the limitations or barriers that prohibited a program
from meeting the goal/objective.

MCCSA Initial Efforts
• Development of Quality Policies and ProceduresCQI policies and procedures were developed using the COA Standards as a guide. A program manager’s structure was implemented to establish a reporting format.
• Program Quarterly Reports (Effective in Dealing with Resistance)
Initially, quarterly reporting was done in an inconsistent format. Program staff were trained individually on developing measurable goals and objectives.
![Page 11: Methods in Implementing an Effective CQI Program in a Social Services Setting](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070502/56814ac9550346895db7ddca/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
MCCSA Initial Efforts
• Strategic Planning– Used consultant in non-profit area to assist with
development– Involved all program managers – Focus Groups (State Administrators; Board and
Line Staff)– All staff involved in implementation of strategic
plan– Merged strategic plan goals and performance
targets with quality program.
![Page 12: Methods in Implementing an Effective CQI Program in a Social Services Setting](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070502/56814ac9550346895db7ddca/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
MCCSA Initial Efforts
• Implementation of Performance Program– Assigned designated staff as lead
![Page 13: Methods in Implementing an Effective CQI Program in a Social Services Setting](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070502/56814ac9550346895db7ddca/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
MCCSA’s Process• Individually meet with Program Coordinators
(Effective in dealing with resistance)
• Use Interviewing techniques/questions to complete the Short Term Objective (STO) form (handout)
• Identify overall program goal(s)1. “What is your main responsibility?”2. “What drives your program?”3. “What specific things do you have to achieve to
be successful?”
![Page 14: Methods in Implementing an Effective CQI Program in a Social Services Setting](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070502/56814ac9550346895db7ddca/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
MCCSA’s Process
• Develop Short-Term Objectives– Establish Measurable Objectives
• Make a list of all major duties • Group like duties and develop
objectives
• Develop Performance Indicators– Enumerate specific data elements with
thresholds/benchmarks for each objective
