Research team discussing study with patient. (Life in View/Science Photo Library, n.d.)Knowledge is like money: to be of value it must circulate, and in circulating it can increase in quantity and, hopefully, in value.

Think about where you might disseminate the results of your project. You have put a lot of work into this project; how can it be used to improve patient care in your practice setting, and how you could eventually disseminate the results on a larger scale?
This activity will address the following module outcome:
MO1: Examine dissemination opportunities for research and EBP results (EPSLO 6; SLO 3)
Based on your learning activities, respond to the following prompts. Be sure to support your answers with references when needed.
Describe a venue in your immediate practice environment you could use to disseminate the results of your project (poster presentation at conference, media submission, grand rounds, etc.). Analyze the benefit of your findings for the everyday practice of the inter-professional team.

Identify one professional peer-reviewed journal that might be interested in publishing your results. Access the requirements for authors and view the manuscript submission guidelines of the journal. Describe the steps you would take to submit your paper as a manuscript to this journal. What do you see as the biggest challenge? Evaluate the impact your project may have on the body of knowledge in the discipline.

This activity will address the following module outcome:
MO2: Describe sources of grant funding (EPSLO 6; SLO 3)
Think about how you might fund a research or EBP project on your topic. If you had a grant, how would it enhance possibilities for the generation of new knowledge, or translation of evidence into practice?
Based on your learning activities, respond to the following prompts. Be sure to support your answers with references when needed.
Review the funding sources listed on pp. 657 and 675-679 of your text. Consider the funding opportunities from Sigma Theta Tau (Links to an external site.), as well. Explore one of the sites that would be most applicable to your project and/or future research interests. Describe the sources of funding you found on the site.
Consider the “Major Pitfalls of Grant Proposals” listed in Box 22.5- 5 on p. 673 of your text and the YouTube video, It’s not about the post hole digger (Links to an external site.), in the Learning & Assessment Activities.
Would any of the “pitfalls” apply to your project? What are the strengths of your project that may increase the chances of getting grant funding? How would you search for possible sources of funding?
Dissemination of evidence based practice results involves targeted circulation of information and interventions to a particular public health or clinical practice audience (Choi, 2005). The main objective of dissemination is to increase and promote the spread of knowledge regarding evidence based interventions, with an intention of enhancing its greater application and patient outcomes (Cain & Mittman, 2012). There are various internal and external methods of disseminating evidence based project. However, the method applied should be effective.
Effective dissemination is characterized by positive engagement of the targeted audience, which enhances awareness, understanding and motivation to implement in the workplace. The choice of dissemination methods depends on the targeted audience. Healthcare audience is mostly interested on how specific evidence fit into a specific context and the implications of adopting the changes on various aspects, such as policy, quality of care, staffing and funding among other aspects (Cain & Mittman, 2012).
The internal method that I would use to disseminate the evidence based practice is the hospital board. Hospital board essentially comprises of the employees of the health organization, such as nurses, physicians and other professionals involved in patient care. While disseminating the EBP to the hospital board the most appropriate method to apply would be face to face. The approach facilitates interaction and instant feedback especially during questioning sessions.
