What to expect Context of our talk History of our journey thus far Lessons learned Where we are now Role of the Knowledge Broker Our next steps Resources to share Applying evidence at your workplace
A little context Sunny Hill Health Centre is a provincial facility, part of BC Children’s Hospital, but on a different site in east Vancouver We see children/youth with disabilities and their families from across the province Therapeutic Recreation has been part of the provision of inpatient, outpatient and outreach services for more than 30 years – services are currently shifting
Some history Became increasingly evident that we needed to have measurable outcomes and proof that we were using the best evidence available to back up what we were doing in TR Drivers propelling us forward included: a) budget constraints, focus on best value b) shift from interdisciplinary to interprofessional collaboration
A little more history c) models of rehabilitation being reviewed and “core therapies” being identified d) looking at “best standard of care” in specific situations within the organization e) outside influences – govt priorities, policies The Department began looking for help both within and outside the organization
Last bit of history Looked to Douglas College’s TR Program to provide increased focus on research in their curriculum – encouraged these changes as a member of the Advisory Board and 2 staff have taken research courses to upgrade Found some “champions” in other staff within the organization (PT/OT based) willing to assist us in new learning, how to move forward
Lessons learned Enlist Support Wherever You Can Get It! (Physicians, Other Therapists, Families, Students) Look for ways to increase the team’s skills, selfconfidence, and visibility (learn how to do a professional poster, encourage public speaking opportunities) Engage a motivated leader – “Knowledge Broker”
More lessons Doing it “on your own” will be unsuccessful (the group needs to be involved in annual goal setting, in-services, reviewing articles, learning from and supporting each other) Support from all levels of the organization is crucial Start small with a methodical approach, use regular set time to review progress
Where are we now? Developing a portfolio of evidence with our program protocols to help support some of the recreation activities we regularly use with clients One staff member has now been through the rigorous ethics approval process in the organization and is in the process of completing a formal research project with the support of both Sunny Hill and Douglas College
Where are we now? We’re certainly not there yet! Have made EBP an ongoing priority within the Department Continue to struggle with “dedicated time” issue (although there has been some progress) Education funding requests being more closely examined to ensure opportunities are evidence-based
Where are we now? Have significantly increased our presence in various public speaking opportunities and in outreach visits throughout the province Have 2 certified staff (with another upcoming), have internship students help us with finding and using the evidence all “service learning” requests relate to EBP Monthly prof. practice meeting specific to EBP
Evidence Based Practice Evidence Research Clinical Experience Client’s Perspective
Knowledge Broker Helps to facilitate evidence based practice A capacity builder who improves access to evidence and empowers colleagues to use relevant evidence Leads in the development of strategies and tools to improve the efficiency and ease by which department colleagues can access, appraise and apply pertinent quality evidence to practice with the ultimate goal of improving TR service delivery for clients.
