View Award Description

DRRP on KT to Promote Patient-Centered Care Through Use of Standardized Assessments - Standardized assessment is the core of evidence-based rehabilitation practice. But patients have limited knowledge and understanding of how clinicians use standardized assessments to monitor progress and not all clinicians and organizations routinely use them. The goal of this project is to apply knowledge translation (KT) principles to develop materials for patients and care partners, and enhance resources for clinicians regarding standardized assessments. With NIDILRR funding we developed the Rehabilitation Measures Database (RMD), an award-winning KT resource providing clinicians with summaries of assessment instruments. Based on KT needs identified, the objectives are to: Aim 1. Improve patients’ and care partners’ understanding of standardized assessments Aim 2. Increase students’ readiness and ability to incorporate standardized assessments into practice Aim 3. Promote rehabilitation clinicians’ routine use of standardized assessments Aim 4. Disseminate information on standardized assessments to patients, care partners, students and clinicians Our approach is to (i) develop and enhance resources for the target populations – patients and care partners, students, and rehabilitation clinicians, and (ii) add instruments to the RMD that are related to function, disability and health. Through partnerships with graduate programs, we will involve faculty and students to develop resources for consumers, and new instrument summaries published in peer-reviewed journals. We will disseminate information to all stakeholders through the RMD and at professional association conferences. The anticipated outcomes are improved patient understanding of standardized assessments, and increased use of standardized assessments in rehabilitation practice. The products will be a comprehensive, enhanced RMD, educational webinars, and KT strategies to promote knowledge and confidence in assessment use. Archived materials will be available after the 5-year project concludes.
