A little context
Sunny Hill Health Centre is a provincial facility, part of BC Children’s Hospital, but on a different site in east Vancouver
We see children/youth with disabilities and their families from across the province
Therapeutic Recreation has been part of the provision of inpatient, outpatient and outreach services for more than 30 years – services are currently shifting
![Page 5: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Some historyBecame increasingly evident that we
needed to have measurable outcomes and proof that we were using the best evidence available to back up what we were doing in TR
Drivers propelling us forward included:a) budget constraints, focus on best valueb) shift from interdisciplinary to interprofessional collaboration
![Page 6: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
A little more historyc) models of rehabilitation being reviewed
and “core therapies” being identifiedd) looking at “best standard of care” in specific
situations within the organizatione) outside influences – govt priorities, policies
The Department began looking for help both within and outside the organization
![Page 7: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Last bit of history
Looked to Douglas College’s TR Program to provide increased focus on research in their curriculum – encouraged these changes as a member of the Advisory Board and 2 staff have taken research courses to upgrade
Found some “champions” in other staff within the organization (PT/OT based) willing to assist us in new learning, how to move forward
![Page 8: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Lessons learned
Enlist Support Wherever You Can Get It!(Physicians, Other Therapists, Families, Students)
Look for ways to increase the team’s skills, self-confidence, and visibility (learn how to do a professional poster, encourage public speaking opportunities)
Engage a motivated leader – “Knowledge Broker”
![Page 9: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
More lessonsDoing it “on your own” will be unsuccessful
(the group needs to be involved in annual goal setting, in-services, reviewing articles, learning from and supporting each other)
Support from all levels of the organization is crucial
Start small with a methodical approach, use regular set time to review progress
![Page 10: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Where are we now?
Developing a portfolio of evidence with our program protocols to help support some of the recreation activities we regularly use with clients
One staff member has now been through the rigorous ethics approval process in the organization and is in the process of completing a formal research project with the support of both Sunny Hill and Douglas College
![Page 11: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Where are we now?
We’re certainly not there yet!Have made EBP an ongoing priority within
the Department Continue to struggle with “dedicated time”
issue (although there has been some progress)
Education funding requests being more closely examined to ensure opportunities are evidence-based
![Page 12: You Can Do This! Bringing Evidence Based Practice into the Workplace](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/568152a6550346895dc0c9d4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Where are we now?
Have significantly increased our presence in various public speaking opportunities and in outreach visits throughout the province
Have 2 certified staff (with another upcoming), have internship students help us with finding and using the evidence
all “service learning” requests relate to EBP Monthly prof. practice meeting specific to
EBP

A capacity builder who improves access to evidence and empowers colleagues to use relevant evidence
Leads in the development of strategies and tools to improve the efficiency and ease by which department colleagues can access, appraise and apply
pertinent quality evidence to practice withthe ultimate goal of improving TR service delivery for clients.
