Adapted from LIA 7 steps
Asking the right Question
1. Identify what good practice looks like
2. Identify what changes need to be made to achieve this
3. What practical steps can be taken to get there
Questions 1 & 2 • In 6 months time you have the evidence or knowledge
that you need to support your work at your fingertips.
– What is the information and what do you need it for?
– How will you use it / put it into practice?
– What does this look like? What form do you want this to be in.
What we found out
• Accessibility
• Synthesised evidence ready to put into practice
• Peer reviewed resources
• Personalised online feeds
• Specific questions answered
• Information stored in one place
• What the rest of the trust is doing
• Services already available
‘A clear, concise answer to the
question’
‘Information will guide clinical
practice’
the ‘ability to have a ‘specific’ question answered with relevant, targeted evidence.
‘I will pass on knowledge to my
colleagues and client group’

doing

Productive partnershipsName carried weight to
push things through
a ‘personalised Twitter like feed’ and to be able to ‘share peer reviewed resources that staff have chosen’
Next Steps
