The focus of this session will be on the accountability to implement and sustain evidence-based practaice at the point of care. The School and the Hospital have had a strong partnership for many years and the hospital provided the clinical laboratory for student learning. No one knows better than faculty the variance in practice at the point of care. The faculty and hospital staff share in the accountability of student learning in every aspect of thought and workflow. The often spoken reality is "this is the way it is taught but this is how it is in the real world." It is the reminder of the work needed to reach best practices and stop variance. The commitment to bridge the gap and create consistent, safe, quality services for both those who give and receive care led the Service Leadership and Faculty on a journey to transform practice and implement evidence-based practice with the support of technology. The reality of that commitment brought a cascade of learning and transformation of thinking, practice and relationships for leadership, staff, faculty and students. | |||
