Feel: Energized that teams have the tools to effectively mobilize and optimistic about the resources shared across the QI Collaborative.

Do:

  1. PDSA cycles to improve and address key drivers in clinical practice
  2. PDSA cycles to address interventions that support key drivers for the collaborative aim
  3. PDSA cycles to maintain/sustain the gains made in the interventions tested over the last 5 years
