Area of Science:
- Academic Medicine
- Knowledge Translation
- Mentorship Programs
Background:
- Numerous knowledge translation theories exist, causing confusion for planning and policy.
- Graham's knowledge to action framework offers a unified approach.
- Academic medicine faces challenges in mentorship due to competing demands.
Purpose of the Study:
- Apply the knowledge to action framework to a mentorship initiative.
- Develop and implement a mentorship strategy for clinician researchers.
- Address barriers and facilitators in academic mentorship.
Main Methods:
- Case study review of mentorship in academic medicine.
- Involved stakeholders: researchers, administrators, funders.
- Utilized the knowledge to action framework for strategy development.
Main Results:
- Developed a mentorship strategy using the knowledge to action framework.
- Identified stakeholder engagement as crucial for knowledge implementation.
- Selected and tailored initiatives, developing evaluation strategies.
Conclusions:
- The knowledge to action framework is applicable for developing clinician researcher mentorship.
- Future evaluation of the intervention's impact on recruitment and retention is planned.

01:15Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model
The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.

01:24Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation
Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about insulin...
01:15Nursing Implementation
Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

01:26Metacognition
Metacognition is a conscious process where individuals are aware of their cognitive and executive processes, such as planning before solving a problem or self-monitoring during reading. For instance, a writer may need help with composing a piece. The situation involves a writer who is working on a piece of writing, but while doing so, they realize that something is missing. They notice that their characters lack depth or details. This realization occurs because the writer is reflecting on their...
