Healthcare Redesign Solutions and Implementation CAM510

Introduction

Students completing this unit will acquire advanced problem-solving skills, encompassing the design of targeted healthcare redesign solutions to meet identified quality and safety issues, gaps, and system inefficiencies found within health services. The unit draws upon a solid theoretical and empirical basis and introduces students to a range of best-practice models and tools for use within primary, secondary and tertiary health care contexts. The unit is designed to enhance students’ solution-design and implementation skills within an applied problem-solving environment or in a virtual environment. The unit follows CAM509 Healthcare Redesign Diagnostics and Analysis and is designed to support the second half of a student’s healthcare redesign project. Upon completion of these units, students will have applied healthcare redesign, project and change management theory and skills to deliver a small healthcare redesign project.
