QUALITY · FELLOWSHIP

Clinical Audit & Quality Improvement Fellowship

Status: Open – accepting applications

Improving the quality of care has been a priority for our General Manager since he took office, beginning with the quality evaluation teams deployed across all services in December 2024. To build on this, YGOPH is launching a Clinical Audit and Quality Improvement Fellowship, coordinated by the Research and Evaluation Service.

Over six months, from February to July 2027, fellows will learn quality-improvement methods and lead a concrete project in their own service, such as reducing waiting times, improving use of the WHO Safe Childbirth Checklist, preventing infections or improving the follow-up of premature babies.

Programme

  • Monthly workshops on clinical audit, improvement cycles and data analysis;
  • Protected time to design, carry out and evaluate your project;
  • Mentoring by senior clinicians and the Research and Evaluation Service;
  • Presentation of results to management and at the hospital's scientific day.

How to apply

Send a one-page project idea, your CV and the written approval of your chief of service through our online application form, with “QI Fellowship” in the subject line. Up to six fellows will be selected for the first cohort, and the results of the selection will be announced in January 2027.
