• DDM3 Intensive review and exam retake• DDM4 Pilot • DDM5 Project Kick-off• Partners’ Retreat
For Individual Board Member Consideration:o Nomination of participants
> Previous DDM participants> New DDM candidates who have some epi/stats background
Proposed USAPI Regional Epi Capacity Building Unit (REU): Building blocks
Workforce:• Cohort of Epi Technicians at each health dept (DDM1-DDM5) • At least 1 fully qualified, non-expat applied epidemiologist at each health
dept (SHIP)Systems: • Routine weekly communicable disease reports• High quality SitReps during outbreaks• NCD surveillance plan• Annual NCD surveillance profile• Annual Regional NCD and CD surveillance profile• HIS capable of measuring preventive services coverage accurately
Proposed REU: Formal agreements Health Dept REU
• New system elements to install
• Nominations of Epi Technician candidates
• Expectations of candidates
• Support to be provided by Director/Minister/Secretary
Proposed REU:Terms of engagement for REU staff
• Monitoring & Mentoring: REU staff Epi Tech in-country work• Sharing correspondence within REU• Annual regional products: • Evaluations of CD and NCD surveillance systems in each USAPI• Regional profile of CD and NCDs- Progress and capacities
• Formal letters of notification through PIHOA ED for site visits of REU members
For Board Consideration: o Consider endorsement of REU, communique to CDC and partners
For Individual Board Member Consideration:o Nomination of Epi Technician candidates for your agencyo Development of REU agreement
Other Good Frameworks:
•CDC Healthy People 2020•WHO NCD Global Monitoring Framework• Framework Convention for Tobacco Control•WHO “Best Buys” for NCDs•WHO Pacific Roadmap for NCDs
Advantages of USAPI NCD “Products”1) Commissioned by you2) Developed by your Technical Working Groups3) Pacific appropriate4) Emergency-level intensity (Comprehensive)5) Designed to fit with both CDC and WHO approaches6) Gives you a place on the global stage

Take Home Messages
Population Level:• Many gaps in surveillance picture• Some progress, especially tobacco and alcohol• Lots of room for more progress
Health services level:• Must “ramp up” preventive services delivery move beyond pilot projects in NCD clinics• Information systems are a key element
Both levels: • Dis-coordination among technical assistance agencies is a big handicap• NCD surveillance plans at jurisdiction level need reinforcement
Hopes for next 6 months
• Update the USAPI NCD Surveillance Framework
• Update USAPI NCD Progress Profile, and policy uptake mapping
• Bring at least some DDM participants through entire DDM series to Epi Technician certification
• Accelerate data and epi systems development across the USAPI with the assistance of Drs Cash and Hancock
• Identify stable, core funding for DDM-SHIP to allow wider dissemination of EpiTech
Board guidance requestedo On Concept Brief for a Regional Epi Capacity Building Unit & Framework (with
possible endorsement and communique)o On re-convening the USAPI Technical Working Group to review and update the
USAPI NCD Monitoring and Surveillance Framework o Whether USAPI NCD “products” are still relevant (if yes, how to promote them
with TA partners)
For Individual Board Member Consideration in your Jurisdiction• Nominees to upcoming DDM4• Nominate a cohort of Epi Technician candidates in your jurisdiction• Formal Data & Surveillance Capacity Agreements with REU• Delegate a staff member to update of NCD surveillance & policy profile
QI-PM Extension Services-

ICN-LFC RecapTraining program designed to build leadership
capacity among mid/senior level manages17 participants from USAPI (9 PIHOA funded,
8 jurisdiction support)Three 5 day sessions in HNLAll selected a change project that was
approved by their supervisor
ICN LFC Projects Decubitus ulcer reduction X2 OPD waiting time reduction Organizational leadership capacity X2 Midwifery career ladder Organizational leadership capacity Access to IUD technology Expansion of HIV / STI services Development of a strategic plan Strategic plan for management & leadership Cervical Ca. screening follow up Standardize pt. referral across MOH Move administration of daily insulin from ED to the community
(home) setting
Outcomes (see handout)
All projects initiatedMost at initial implementation phase
Examples of successful QI change projects: ◦ Ebeye team: Of 82 pts. receiving 2 X day daily
insulin from ED, moved 62 to home administration, goal to address remaining 20.
◦ AS team: Three yr. gradual increase in readmission rate. Revised discharge planning process. Now 89% (from 23%) discharge planning initiated on admission, developed a medication reconciliation policy, started caregivers classes.
Factors that influenced project success
Topic deemed very relevant to senior leadership in the organization
Strong support and engagement from senior leadership
Management skills of participant
Lessons learned (relative to this project)
Organizational change requires support from the very top
Leadership is not the same as management, and management skills need to be cultivated
Managers need to be “supervised, managed & supported”… stay on target & on task, have barriers addressed along the way
Most managers know the principles and mechanics of QI, but some are not formally supervised and or lack the organizational support to really effect improvement change
Lessons learned (continued)Managers should be focusing efforts on the
priority areas of senior management– that are linked to the strategic plan
Sustainability requires abilities to hand off projects and assure accountability
Next steps……Dissemination: Invitation letter from
nursing management journal for publication – needs to be written up
Projects have been initiated, but not yet completed– ongoing management support and supervision of progress
Ongoing PIHOA technical support requires jurisdiction level will and support (example: Kosrae has budgeted funds for roll out across their management workforce)
