“…Relational dynamics that appeared to support facilitator work involved a flattening of hierarchal practices and the creation of more democratic, inclusive and collaborative patterns of relating between leaders and practitioners. Similar findings have been reported by others (Rycroft‐Malone, 2004; Edgar et al. , 2006; Cummings et al.…”

Aim. The focus of this study is on the perspective of facilitators of evidence-based aged care in long-term care (LTC) homes about the factors that influence the outcome of their efforts to encourage nursing staff use of best practice knowledge. Design. Critical incident technique was used to examine facilitators' experiences. Methods. Thirty-four participants submitted critical incident stories about their facilitation experiences through face-to-face interviews, telephone interviews, and/or a web-based written questionnaire. The resultant 123 stories were analysed using an inductive qualitative approach. Results. Factors at individual and contextual levels impacted the success of facilitators' work. The approaches and traits of facilitators as well as the emotionality and intellectual capacity of nursing staff were the individual factors of influence. On a contextual level, the inherent leadership, culture, and workload demands within LTC homes, as well as externally imposed standards were influential. Conclusions. Primary factors influencing the facilitation of best aged care in LTC homes appear to be largely relational in nature and intimately connected to the emotionality of those who work within these settings. Enhancing the interactional patterns amongst staff and leaders as well as promoting a positive emotional climate may be particularly effective in promoting better aged care nursing practice.

“…Though the EBP/RU models were found predominantly in the nursing literature, models within the other three thematic areas crossed several disciplines including health services research, behavioral science, and organizational psychology. We also observed differences among the models relative to whether they were developed empirically and inductively20, 34, 44, 50, deductively and based on theoretical propositions17, 25, 27, 36, 55, or whether a combination of inductive and deductive processes were used32, 37, 48. Although there were notable exceptions21, 41, 73, few of the models have been explicitly tested.…”

Background The quantity and diversity of conceptual models in translational science may complicate rather than advance the use of theory. Purpose This paper offers a comparative thematic analysis of the models available to inform knowledge development, transfer, and utilization. Method Literature searches identified 47 models for knowledge translation. Four thematic areas emerged: (1) evidence-based practice and knowledge transformation processes; (2) strategic change to promote adoption of new knowledge; (3) knowledge exchange and synthesis for application and inquiry; (4) designing and interpreting dissemination research. Discussion This analysis distinguishes the contributions made by leaders and researchers at each phase in the process of discovery, development, and service delivery. It also informs the selection of models to guide activities in knowledge translation. Conclusions A flexible theoretical stance is essential to simultaneously develop new knowledge and accelerate the translation of that knowledge into practice behaviors and programs of care that support optimal patient outcomes.

“…Gadamer 2004a, Oatley 2004, Akerjordet 2009). Ideally, a bridge should be built between the science‐driven and the practice‐driven approach in order to facilitate knowledge utilization aimed at a more evidence‐based nursing practice (Edgar et al. 2006, Murphy & Sideman 2006).…”

“…As role models over a long period, EI leaders motivate both themselves and their followers to engage in self‐reflection in relation to awareness and learning, thus fostering self‐leadership skills and providing an opportunity to discover strengths and weaknesses through introspective investigation (Akerjordet & Severinsson 2004, Watson 2004, Hurley 2008). They are thus able to promote knowledge and innovation as well as create therapeutic work relationships, which are critical for facilitating knowledge utilization that leads to more evidence‐based nursing practice (Edgar et al. 2006).…”

It is important to possess in-depth knowledge of EI and its scientific critique when integrating the concept into nursing research, education and practical settings. More attention to the nature of emotion in EI is necessary. Implications for nursing leadership The dynamics of EI should be explored in the context of both the surrounding environment and individual differences, as the latter can be adaptive in some settings but harmful in others.
