PDSA Quality Improvement Tool
The NMBI Professional Competence Scheme (PCS) is based on the PDSA (Plan – Do – Study – Act) quality improvement tool.
The PDSA approach is simple.
- Plan a learning activity
- Do it
- Study what happens by reflection to critically analyse learning and its impact on safe professional practice that will protect the public, and
- Act on it.
NMBI's role is to monitor the maintenance of professional competence. This is done by registered practitioners providing evidence of their continuing professional development and practice hours.
