Full Description
Building on Harvey and Kitson's influential Implementing Evidence-Based Practice in Healthcare, this new book draws on up-to-date research to demonstrate how to navigate a knowledge translation approach.
Recognising that the process of implementation is complex and dynamic, the first part of the book explores how understandings of knowledge translation can be applied and utilised at every stage of the research process to maximise impact and research uptake in practice. The second part of the book is made up of case studies incorporating 'how-to' advice and practical insights, demonstrating how the theory from part 1 can work in real life. The final section considers future leadership challenges.
This is an essential guide for students, academics and clinicians with an interest in knowledge translation and implementation science in healthcare.
