Sharing

Sharing the challenges and successes of the design and implementation of the CCFAP can be very helpful to others in the parent hospital or medical center, as well as to hospitals and medical centers in other parts of the country. Sharing information effectively requires you to document your decisions clearly and to put your tools and materials in a form that will make distribution fast and simple. Staying organized and keeping up with the materials needed to organize and implement the CCFAP is a significant task. But these actions are necessary for sharing lessons learned with others.

Steps for sharing the CCFAP include the following:

• Document decisions clearly and keep materials organized.
• Identify opportunities to collaborate with other CCFAP sites on data/research and publications.
• Identify professional journals to publish results of the CCFAP.
• Develop presentations for conferences.

Included in the Replication Toolkit:

• Strategy for preparing an article for submission to a professional journal.
• List of professional journals that might be interested in an article on the program.
• Guide for developing an oral presentation, poster presentation, and a PowerPoint presentation.
