4. Call For Action
4
๏ APHA membership has declined 12% from
2007 to 2011.
๏ Similar decline seen in professional
associations across the US due to shrinking
budgets and g
g growing unemployment.
g p y
๏ APHA wants to increase membership and
better serve membersโ needs.
๏ As liaison to units, ISC can help APHA better
understand what needs to be done to better
serve members and bring in new members.
For APHA-ISC/SC 2/28/12
5. ISC and APHA Units
5
๏ ISC/SC is the liaison to APHA units: Section, SPIGS,
Forums, Caucuses
๏ 2011 Action Report/2012 Workplan has been re-
structured to be consistent with a quality
improvement framework
๏ Q lit improvement framework?

Model for Improvement
Two Parts
Part 1 โ Three Critical Questions
1. What are we trying to
accomplish?
li h?
2. How will we know that the
change is an improvement?
3. What changes can we make
that will result in an
improvement

8. What we will need to get started

๏ Select a strategic p j

g p
๏ Identified group who will test the interventions or
changes?
๏ Potential to identify and collect process and outcome
measures? Can some of these be tracked daily,
weekly or monthly?
kl thl ?
๏ Identify interventions that be used that are known to
have worked?
๏ Some aspect of project can be completed in 12
months?

10. Adapting the Framework for the ISC/SC
10
What will we need?
What are we doing?
What is the timeline?
Can you picture what it will look like if most of the
sections/spigs/APHA adopted a quality improvement
approach?
For APHA-ISC/SC 2/28/12
11. What is the ISC/SC trying to accomplish?

Examples
๏ Increase membership engagement in _#__
sections/spigs by ___%.
๏ Number of identified strategies objectives
improved and/or reached increased by 15%.
๏IIncrease membership numbers i APHA b ___
b hi b in by
%.
For APHA-ISC/SC 2/28/12
12. Measurement Assumptions
p
๏ The purpose of measurement in quality
improvement is for learning not judgment
๏ All measures have limitations, but the limitations do
not negate their value
g
๏ก Seek usefulness, not perfection
๏ Measures are one voice of the system. Hearing the
y g
voice of the system gives us information on how to
act within the system
๏ Measures tell a story; goals in your aim statement
give a reference point
For APHA-ISC/SC 12 2/28/12
13. Identify a Balanced โFamilyโ of Measures
y y
Outcome = Voice of the customer/student:
๏ How is the system performing?
๏ What is the result?
๏ How is the learning of the student affected?
Process = Voice of the workings of the system:
๏ Are the parts/steps in the system performing as planned?
๏ Are key changes being implemented in the system?
Balancing = Looking at a system from different dimensions
๏ What happened to the system as we improved the outcome and
process measures?
๏ Are we improving some parts of the system at the expense of
others?
For APHA-ISC/SC 13 2/28/12
14. How will we know that the change is an
improvement? -

Membership engagement examples Engagement โ Equity โ Outcomes
๏ % of members actively involved in leadership, committees,
projects
๏ % of members who read emails, newsletters over a finite
period of time (e.g. before and after a planned event)
๏ % of members by region, field, membership level
region field level,
ethnic/racial, geographic level, who participate
๏ % of strategic projects with clear focus, process and
outcome measures change ideas
