  3. Overcoming barriers - Force Field Analysis What is it? • Force Field Analysis is a QI tool designed to identify driving (positive) and restraining (negative) forces that support or work against the solution of an issue or problem. • When the driving and restraining forces are identified, steps can be taken to reinforce the driving forces and reduce the restraining forces What does the Force Field do? • Allows comparisons of the “positives” and “negatives” of a situation • Enables easy comparisons • Forces people to think together about all the aspects of making the desired change a permanent one • Encourages people to agree about the relative priority of factors on each side of an issue • Supports the honest and open reflection on the underlying root causes of a problem and ways to break down barriers

  4. How do I set up a Force Field Analysis? • Draw a letter “T” on a flipchart page • Write the name of the issue or project across the top of the page • Label the left column “Driving Forces” and the right column the “Restraining Forces” • Use brainstorming or nominal group technique (NGT) to generate the list of forces or factors that are driving the issue or project and those that are restraining or the holding things back • Eliminate duplicate ideas and clarify any ideas that are vague or not specific • If the team feels the need, they can use rank ordering to set priorities for the driving and restraining forces • Generate a list of ideas about actions that can be taken to reduce the restraining forces

  5. Force Field Analysis WorksheetIssue or Project: ______________________________________ Driving Forces (+) Restraining Forces (-) • Actions to reduce the Restraining Forces:

  6. Improving Nutritional Care Programme - Force Field Analysis Making communication matter - Improving Communication of Nutritional Care between Care Home and Hospital Driving Forces (+) Nurse Engagement Education- across nurses/GPs Awareness -sessions Success stories Leadership – local/ national Nutrition champion links Restraining Forces (-) Time -for training Limited information on discharge Another bit of paper Attitude Poor communication • Actions to reduce the Restraining Forces - structures, resources, attitudes, engagement • Aim to centralise information • Align to pre-existing discharge plans -speak to discharge co-ordinators • Manage staff resources to make training accessible or development of CD/video AP to make training as accessible as possible • Work with those who want to work with you • Support, inform, value – key local lead

  7. Force Field Analysis - Exercise • What driving forces are compelling you to move forward with your nutritional care improvement work? • What restraining forces (barriers) are holding you back from your nutritional care improvement work? • Take your list of restraining forces and identify in the box on the worksheet the actions you plan to take to reduce these restraining forces
