Each seminar has a featured speaker(s) and theme and there will be an opportunity to connect and ask about their work.
Staff and students from Queen Mary and Barts Health NHS Trust are invited to join us, to:
Milena Marszalek presents a mixed-methods evaluation of an intervention aiming to improve timeliness and equity of preschool immunisations given through primary care. Preschool immunisation rates in London are among the worst in England, and with measles outbreaks now underway in the UK, efforts are urgently needed to help primary care teams improve levels of protection. In 2022 the Clinical Effectiveness Group (CEG) at Queen Mary implemented a Quality Improvement programme, centred on a ‘call/recall’ software tool that aims to make it simpler for GP practices across North East London to call children for the right vaccine at the right time. Milena’s evaluation includes an interrupted time series comparing the pre- and post-implementation periods. She also used 'Think Aloud' exercises and semi-structured interviews to assess the usability and feasibility of the tool. In the seminar, Milena will focus on the quantitative results, the value of mixed methods, evaluating an intervention in real-time, and the impacts of the results on clinical practice.
With the consent of the speakers, recordings of our seminars are available to watch here after the event.
