How do we know we make a difference? Evaluation of the nurses [HUB]

Deborah Rawlings, Jennifer Tieman

    Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

    Abstract

    Nurses are the largest group in the health
    workforce and provide most of the direct
    patient and family care. CareSearch
    launched a nurses[HUB] in August 2010 to
    support nurses providing palliative care in
    any setting.
    Anecdotal evidence and website statistics
    indicated use and uptake of the information in
    the nurses[HUB]. However, in order to look
    formally at the impact and effectiveness of
    the nurses[HUB], an evaluation strategy was
    developed in conjunction with an external
    evaluation partner, the Centre for Health
    Services Development at University of
    Wollongong. This was implemented seven
    months following the launch.
