Using the information in the required readings, as well as some additional research in peer-reviewed sources, complete your SLP assignment by answering the following:
1. Briefly research the leading methods of continuous quality improvement in health care, including Plan-Do-Study-Act, Rapid Cycle Improvement, FOCUS-PCDA, Lean, Six Sigma, and the FADE Model. Which of these (alone or in combination) could best be used for continuous quality improvement in your current or intended future job setting, and why? Please keep in mind that these methods are not mutually exclusive, yet managers often allow one method to be dominant in their respective health care settings.
2. Present the method of your choice (and your specific rationale for choosing it). Be clear in outlining the key steps to the process you chose, and also explaining what they will need to know to implement the method correctly in your setting.
