About us

We developed a model for a comprehensive Quality Improvement (QI) programme. This is tailored to support paediatric epilepsy teams to work together to define their shared aims and develop practical interventions matching their capacity and resources. The Epilepsy Quality Improvement Programme is an NHS England funded project, and managed by the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, who also manages the national clinical audit Epilepsy12. The training is delivered by an external QI trainer, the RCPCH &US team and our links with epilepsy charity stakeholders help to facilitate the training.
