Step Five — Evaluate the Outcome

Captions available

The idea

Step five is evaluating the outcomes of the decision or practice change that was made.

In practice

Measuring whether the change produced what the evidence predicted it would, on this unit.

Where people slip

Without this step the process asserts an improvement rather than demonstrating one, and nothing distinguishes it from an untested change.
