Health Quality Ontario (HQO) Primary Care Learning Collaboratives: Lessons Learned from a Mixed Method Evaluation of a Provincial QI Program
FY 2012-13
Summary
The evaluation of primary healthcare quality improvement (QI) programs and the wide dissemination of the results from these evaluations are essential in helping us understand their impact on improving actual patient care and the delivery of healthcare in Canada. In Ontario, a team of researchers (the applicants) has recently completed a comprehensive mixed method evaluation of a province wide QI program that included a matched control trial as one component of the evaluation strategy. This end-of-project knowledge dissemination application will provide funds for activities that will facilitate the sharing of lessons learnt from the evaluation with individual clinician practices, policy makers, researchers and students across Canada. Additionally the team includes investigators early in their career to be mentored with the goal to increase knowledge translation capacity at each institution.
