IMPACTMEASURING WHAT MATTERS: THE IMPORTANCE OF IMPACT
The Joanna Briggs Institute will celebrate 20 years of activity in 2016, which is an impressive organisational milestone. We have achieved a lot during that time and taken great strides towards achieving our vision and mission of improving the health of communities globally through the synthesis, transfer and implementation of the best available evidence for policy and practice.
Measuring and reporting impact is becoming increasingly important to evidence-based healthcare. It is integral to monitoring the influence and effect of research evidence on decision-making at the point of care and its ability to improve health outcomes for the community. Evaluating and reporting on the success of JBI activities, initiatives and outputs and learning from that experience are key to the progression and maturity of our organisation and our future development.
Our ability to continue to enhance our performance and move forward strategically relies heavily on our capacity to understand what works and what doesn’t in our organisation. This document provides an overview of measures of impact undertaken in 2015. It offers an opportunity to celebrate our success and learn from our experience and I am pleased to share it with you as we close another year.

A large factor associated with the wide impact of JBI, both in Australia and worldwide, is attributed to JBI’s commitment to synthesising the best internationally available evidence and providing this information in appropriate, relevant formats to inform health systems, health professionals and consumers. JBI provides programs to enable the effective implementation of evidence and the evaluation of its impact on healthcare practice.

JBI Higher Degree Research (HDR) programs have grown since the first intake of July 2010, with numbers per intake capped to balance the growing demand for this program against the staff capacity available for research student supervision. Our research output in HDR completions is now the third highest in the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Adelaide, and the highest overall when comparing available staff to enrolments and completions.

have used this [the JBI] approach,
the clinicians have owned the
review findings and have described
it as a valuable professional
development activity.”Jillian AdamsNurse, Department of Health, Western Australia
“ The tips and tricks for searching
the literature have enhanced
my searching abilities and my
effectiveness in teaching students
about it as well.”Michelle DeCoux HamptonAssociate Professor, Samuel Merritt University, Northern California
“ I can credit utilising JBI resources
to being instrumental in the success
of both the students I mentored, who
conducted systematic reviews - their
