Navigating Knowledge Translation in Health and Care
Edited by Alison Kitson
-
Building on Harvey and Kitson’s influential Implementing Evidence-Based Practice in Healthcare, this new book draws on up-to-date research to demonstrate how to navigate a knowledge translation approach. Recognising that the process of implementation is complex and dynamic, the first section of the book explores how understandings of knowledge translation can be applied and utilised at every stage of the research process to maximise impact and research uptake in practice. The second section of the book is made up of case studies incorporating ‘how-to’ advice and practical insights, demonstrating how the theory from the first section can work in the real life context. The final section considers future leadership challenges. This is an essential guide for students, academics, and clinicians with an interest in knowledge translation and implementation science in health and care.
