ABSTRACT: Effective
leadership plays an important role in safe patient care. The aim of this paper
was to understand and improve the
implementation outcomes identified by empirical studies based on Proctors et al.’s key concepts, acceptability
appropriateness, feasibility and fidelity, and to propose recommendations for
further research. Methods: An interdisciplinary approach using mixed methods.
Results: A total of twenty papers based on data from this interdisciplinary
study have been published. Overall, our published empirical studies revealed
that the CCM intervention had positive results due to staff members’ engagement
to improve care, their awareness of the need for collaboration and willingness
to assume responsibility for patient care. From the perspective of the
depressed elderly persons the results of the research project indicated their
need for support to increase self-management. In conclusion, an improved
understanding of the implementation outcomes will have an impact on best
practice for depressed elderly persons and dissemination purposes. Quality management
and highly action-oriented involvement are necessary in implementation
research. These will also affect the professional development of
interdisciplinary teams as well as constitute a basis for further research on
understanding and improving the care of depressed elderly individuals.
