Tools and tips for implementation

 

Return to menu

 

The authors of this toolkit suggest a 5-step process to begin implementation of the position statement recommendations:

  1. Complete a baseline audit of your organisations’ adherence to the position statement recommendations (see audit tool below).
  2. Select the example AACTT framework/s relevant to your clinical context and tailor timeframes to suit local policy and resources (see AACTT frameworks below).
  3. Tailor the generic pathway to your local contact using the AACTT frameworks as a guide (you may want to create a different version of the pathway for each clinical context in your organisation) (see generic pathway below).
  4. Utilise the example clinical indicators to develop local key performance indicators to monitor adherence to your tailored pathway (see example clinical indicators below).
  5. Use the checklist to identify and address barriers to screening and assessment to support the implementation process within your organisation (see checklist below).
