Quality Research & Service Development
Quality Research and Service Development
Manchester Learning Disability Partnership is committed to the improvement and maintenance of service quality through development, evaluation and research.
The Quality Research & Service Development Team (QRSDT) is responsible for work on quality and research within the Manchester Learning Disability Partnership. The team consists of Researchers, Quality Development Officers, and workers seconded to specific projects, and is managed by the Head of Clinical Services who has a joint appointment with Manchester Metropolitan University's Research Institute for Health and Social Change. While the team leads this work, service quality and development are regarded as important responsibilities for everyone in the service. MLDP staff are encouraged to evaluate their practice, do small scale research, and use research findings to improve practice. The QRSDT provides support to do this.
Service quality is also informed by Think Quality (TQ), a group of people who use our services. They meet monthly to discuss inclusion, service quality and quality of life issues.
