Interventions

  • Implementation Facilitation — OTHER
    Implementation facilitation is a multi-faceted process of enabling and supporting the adoption and integration of best practices into routine clinical care. It involves collaboration to understand a setting's challenges and barriers and working together to identify the best activities to address them. IF will incorporate External Facilitation, a problem-solving implementation strategy that builds supportive interpersonal relationships between an External Facilitator who is outside of the clinic who works with clinics and their identified internal champions to learn their unique barriers to implementation, use strategies to address these barriers, and plan for sustainability by integrating the practice into routine processes and workflows. Other implementation activities that will be used IF include staff training, patient education, audit and feedback, and care coordination.
