Putting practitioners through the paces : initial findings in our evaluation of Putting Evidence into Practice : first interim report of the North Thames Purchaser Led Implementation Projects
In the spring of 1996, the Implementation Group of North Thames Research and Development allocated £50000 to each of thirteen health authorities for evidence into practice implementation projects. In autumn 1996, the King's Fund Management College was commissioned to evaluate the 17 approved projects. In particular, they were interested in understanding more about outcomes and evaluation, barriers to change and sustainability. This interim report covers objectives and findings.
