RCPCH EQIP Impact reports
The RCPCH EQIP has published their impact report on 13 August 2024 and final summary report on 12 September 2024 that evaluates the progress and outcomes of initiatives aimed at paediatric epilepsy service teams and wider MDT.
The Epilepsy Quality Improvement Programme is the first initiative of its kind in paediatric epilepsy care.
Many of you will know that we’ve run the Epilepsy Quality Improvement Programme, or EQIP, over the past five years. This brilliant programme has worked with multidisciplinary teams in paediatric epilepsy services across England and Wales, providing QI training and support to help them make sustainable improvements to their services. As EQIP comes to an end, we’ve published reports to evaluate the programme’s impact. The participating teams have also shared case studies on the dedicated EQIP site of their local service improvements, covering varied topics such as transition pathways, patient engagement and mental health support.
We reflect back on a successful programme, which ran from 2019 to 2024, enabling paediatric epilepsy teams across England and Wales learn and implement quality improvement (QI) projects.
