We’ve looked at the knowledge…now lets look at some action
•Practice based small group learning – using real clinical problems to stimulate reflection, discussion and learning among groups of peers
•Sepsis and VTE collaborative – develop a driver diagram, change package & measurement package to improve outcomes for patients with sepsis in Scotland.
Practice based small group learning
• Specially prepared modules produced which “closes the gap between current practice and best practice”
• Knowledge brokers provided support to clinicians in developing a PBSGL module on cervical screening.
• Educational perspective – clinicians and knowledge brokers working together
Sepsis and VTE collaborative
• The Sepsis Collaborative aims to contribute to overall aim of the Scottish Patient Safety Programme of reducing mortality rates by 20% by December 2015
• Knowledge broker involved in a range of activities
• Educational perspective – knowledge broker role combined with tools and resources produced a positive outcome.
Suggested approaches
Source – select appropriate resources
Find – Training on searching
Evaluate – Critical appraisal training
Combine – Use of KM tools
Share – Use of CoPs and social media
Apply – use of actionable knowledge tools
Where to find out more?• Take the knowledge management module on the
QI Hub http://www.qihub.scot.nhs.uk
What can you do?• Join a local or national test of change - contact
your local NHS librarian
Summary
• Knowledge into Action is a national strategy which aims to develop the skills of frontline practitioners for applying knowledge into frontline practice and improvement
• This is not something new rather about embedding this approach into existing learning opportunities.
• There are tools, resources and people to support this moving forward.
Over to you…
Objectives from my project plan
• Identify pilot groups to test approaches.• Embed the core principles of knowledge into action into
medical and quality improvement training.
Can you tell us a little bit about how you currently support learning in your organisation?
What are your initial thoughts on how Knowledge into Action might benefit these activities?
