Data for action: Improving quality of care for women and people with disabilities

The primary objective of this project is to improve data quality, data use and financial tracking for continuous enhancement the quality of CCBRT services.

Activities

With the support of the research team, The project activities with start with a baseline study that would be carried out to survey current data collection methods and quality, as well as data use by staff in relevant department.

As a super specialist referral hospital, CCBRT to develop a software where the staff will efficiently manage extensive amounts of data and connecting data from department and staff through the hospital.

The Data for Action project will train end user staff after the development of the software and the clinical staff. The health worker would be trained in health records. Staff feedback would be organised to improve the capacity of the participants.

Project activities would be closed with the comparison of the baseline study findings and the outcome follow-up survey.
