Quality Catalyst - Igniting Improvement And Inspiring Excellence
What is it and what's in it for you?
By Michael Sidra
Welcome to the launch of Cancer Care Alberta’s own quality improvement and innovation blog called: Quality Catalyst - Igniting Improvement And Inspiring Excellence.
I’m Michael Sidra and I have the privilege of working with you at CCA as the lead for Provincial Systems, Programs and Performance (PSPP). If we haven’t met before – nice to e-meet you.
This blog is curated by the PSPP teams (although we’re counting on your expertise and contributions). The PSPP portfolio supports clinical and operational teams to continually improve. Our team’s vision is “To be the most trusted healthcare improvement team anywhere. Because better is possible.”
Why a blog?
Sharing information, resources and successes is a key feature of high-performing organizations.
AND
There is world-class expertise right here in CCA.
The Quality Catalyst blog will publish blog style articles written by subject matter experts with the aim of sharing learnings and fostering a culture of innovation and continuous improvement.
But there is more.
Our hope is that the Quality Catalyst will be a place for leaders, improvers, and lifelong learners to connect, share ideas and learn from each other. It’s not just one person or group writing – we invite everyone to share learnings, celebrate successes and add improvement ideas or innovations.
The Invite
While there will be a few “CCA All” emails to generate some awareness about this blog, we will send the blog to only those who subscribe. To subscribe to the blog posts, visit the blog space and click Subscribe on the right side of the page.

Let's learn, teach, and improve together. Because better is possible.
Thank you!
