This document provides an introduction to the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle for quality improvement. It explains that PDSA cycles allow for testing changes on a small scale through iterative learning. Changes are implemented in controlled steps to identify problems early before full implementation. The document prompts the reader to think of an accreditation standard they want to improve and develop a PDSA cycle to test changes toward meeting that standard. It emphasizes that PDSA cycles incorporate documentation and data over time to support local learning and sharing of lessons with others.
