Discussion Questions – Dissemination of Findings
Paragraph One:
Identify your stakeholders using the Stakeholder Analysis process (AHRQ resource).
Explain how each stakeholder may be impacted by the outcomes of your findings.
Consider both direct and indirect impacts (e.g., patient safety, workflow changes, policy updates).
Paragraph Two:
Discuss the Purpose of your dissemination process (why you are sharing the findings).
Identify the Audience (who needs to know the findings, e.g., staff, leadership, committees).
Explain the Methods (how you will share the findings, e.g., presentations, reports, dashboards).
Discuss the Timing (when you will present the findings, at what intervals).
Explain the Evaluation (how you will measure whether your dissemination was effective, e.g., feedback surveys, changes in practice).
Paragraph Three:
Explain the next steps after the initial dissemination session.
Examples: preparing abstracts for professional nursing conferences, submitting a manuscript to a journal, creating follow-up workshops, or developing educational materials for staff.
Discuss strategies to ensure the findings reach a broader audience and have a lasting impact on practice.
