HEYNS, Tanya; BOTMA, Yvonne  e  VAN RENSBURG, Gisela. A creative analysis of the role of practice development facilitators in a critical care environment. Health SA Gesondheid (Online) [online]. 2017, vol.22, pp.105-111. ISSN 2071-9736.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.hsag.2016.03.002.

Practice development focuses on methods to address the quality of care and advance healthcare practices. The role of practice development facilitators to address challenges of delivering evidence-based person-centred care in the critical care environment was determined by using a nominal group technique. Eleven participants from public and private healthcare services reached consensus on seven clusters: theory-practice application, facilitation of learning, increasing collaboration, effective communication, facilitation of change, time management and role modelling. The clusters were visually represented as a hot air balloon. Competence as facilitators is of vital importance to ensure knowledge translation with the aim to improve quality.
