In October 2019, Mary Dixon-Woods, director of the THIS Institute, dedicated to healthcare improvement. In that she explained how she believed healthcare improvement could be improved. The essay took the position that "Quality Improvement" isn't necessarily the best way to improve healthcare, and that more rigour needs to be brought to the field. That paper has created a great deal of discussion, so in this podcast we wanted to go back to Mary and ask her what she thinks about improvement, and how we can practically put into place some of the things she calls for. Read the full essay: https://www.bmj.com/content/367/bmj.l5514 And the rest of our healthcare improvement series: https://www.bmj.com/quality-improvement
