- $10 USD: Dental Quality Alliance 101: Improving Dental Care with the Model for Improvement (No CE Credits)
Note: Continuing education credits are not available for this course.
Overview
A cultural shift is taking place in dentistry, which is putting greater emphasis on measurement for improvement. In this unique Open School online course developed in close partnership with the Dental Quality Alliance (DQA) — you’ll learn how to use quantitative and qualitative feedback to evaluate the quality of services in your practice, both clinical and operational, and use that feedback to drive toward meaningful change for you and your patients. Through a series of five short modules, you’ll learn how to use the Model for Improvement to improve processes, procedures, and outcomes within your clinic. Through this interactive learning experience, you will learn, do, and apply the steps needed for any improvement project: Set an aim, select measures, develop ideas for changes, and test changes using Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles.
In Module 1, you'll learn how to use the Model for Improvement (MFI) to improve oral care in hospitals.
In Module 2, you'll learn how to craft a measurable aim statement to help reduce patient wait times and increase oral care services.
In Module 3, you'll learn the importance of building measurable systems by using the Model for Improvement (MFI) to improve outcomes and processes.
In Module 4, you'll identify change concepts using the Associates in Process Improvement (API) and Cause and Effects diagrams to improve dental care within hospital settings.
In Module 5, you'll examine the testing phase within the Model of Improvement to help minimize risks and foster change within complex healthcare systems.
Modules
- Module 1: An Overview of the Model for Improvement
- Module 2: Setting an Aim
- Module 3: Choosing Measures
- Module 4: Developing Changes
- Module 5: Testing Changes
Course Objectives
After completing this course, you'll be able to:
- List the three questions you must ask to apply the Model for Improvement.
- Identify the key elements of an effective aim statement.
- Identify three kinds of measures: process measures, outcome measures, and balancing measures.
- Use change concepts and critical thinking tools to come up with good ideas for changes to test.
- Test changes on a small scale using the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle.
Purchase Options
- $20 USD: Patient Safety 201: Root Cause Analyses and Actions (CE Credits)
- $10 USD: Patient Safety 201: Root Cause Analyses and Actions (No CE Credits)
Overview
This course introduces learners to a systematic response to error called Root Cause Analyses and Actions (RCA2). The goal of RCA2 is to learn from adverse events and near misses, and to take action to prevent them from happening in the future. By the end of this course, you’ll have a step-by-step approach for investigating an event and improving after something goes wrong.
Lesson 1 introduces RCA2 and describes the key elements of the process, including the concept of risk-based prioritization.
Lesson 2 describes how to conduct RCA2, focusing on actions that should occur within 45 days of an adverse event or near-miss incident. You’ll learn whom to include on an RCA2 team, how to conduct interviews and draw a high-level flowchart to understand what happened, and how to use what you learn to develop causal statements.
Lesson 3 takes a close look at the true purpose of RCA2: action. You will learn how to compose recommended actions so that people with appropriate authority in the system can use the findings to improve.

Overview
This three-lesson course will explore health disparities — what they are, why they occur, and how you can help reduce them in your local setting. After discussing the current (and alarming) picture, we’ll learn about some of the promising work that is reducing disparities in health and health care around the world. Then, we’ll suggest how you can start improving health equity in your health system and community.
Lesson 1 uses statistics and videos of experts to highlight disparities in health care and health — and to consider what’s causing these gaps to widen among populations.
In Lesson 2, it’s time to examine work that is reducing inequities by better serving people with poor health and inadequate health care. We’ll introduce IHI’s Framework for Health Care Organizations to Achieve Health Equity and give examples of organizations pursuing equity by taking a tour of several successful initiatives. Finally, it’s your turn. You have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of patients and their communities.
In Lesson 3, we offer several strategies for getting started.
Estimated Time of Completion: 2 hours
Lessons
- Lesson 1: Understanding Health Disparities
- Lesson 2: How Health Care Can Advance Health Equity

Purchase Options
- $20 USD: Quality Improvement 201: Planning for Spread (CE Credits)
- $10 USD: Quality Improvement 201: Planning for Spread (No CE Credits)
Overview
Previous courses in the Quality Improvement catalog focused on testing and implementing a change in one location. This advanced course is about the next logical step: spreading the change.
In Lesson 1, you’ll learn how new ideas typically spread through a population, according to the work of psychologist Kurt Lewin and sociologist Everett Rogers. With their research in mind, you’ll learn what you can do to help motivate the more change-resistant individuals in your population to embrace a new idea, to allow your innovation to spread as far as possible.
In Lesson 2, you’ll learn about how to help a new idea spread across a population, both by motivating the people within the population to adopt the change and by developing new ideas that are inherently more likely to spread. Based on the five traits of innovations that spread, we’ll provide you with a tool, the New Idea Scorecard, to assess your idea for a change. Finally, we’ll provide you with a roadmap for spreading a change, which we call IHI’s Framework for Spread.
In Lesson 3, you’ll follow a detailed case study about how a hospital network in Central Texas used the concepts from the first two lessons to spread a major improvement initiative — widely improving care across a vast system.
Estimated Time of Completion: 1 hour 15 minutes
Lessons
- Lesson 1: How Change Spreads
- Lesson 2: Tactics for Spreading Change
- Lesson 3: Case Study in Spreading Innovations: Transforming Care at the Bedside
Course Objectives
