Cost pressure and quality expectations on health service improvement are rising at the same time. The data supporting the health and pharmaceutical services discipline is usually present but rarely assembled into a decision. The version of this aspect of health and pharmaceutical services described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. Participants finish able to explain health service improvement to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. It suits anyone whose decisions touch this strand of health and pharmaceutical services, in large organisations and small ones alike. Practitioner evidence points the same way: the health and pharmaceutical services discipline improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. Participants leave with a method for health service improvement, not a set of opinions about it. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about the practice within health and pharmaceutical services in their own setting. The programme closes with an action plan for the wider health and pharmaceutical services agenda that each participant writes for their own organisation.
