The NIHR Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) Wessex Knowledge Mobilisation programme focuses primarily on building capacity and capability and mobilising evidence across the priority areas of
- Mental Health and Community Care (including domiciliary care and care homes)
Approaches
The main approaches the knowledge mobilisation team will take are:
- Deploying four Knowledge Mobilisation Fellows aligned to specific programmes, co-produced with stakeholders, and embedded with relevant system/provider teams
- Integrating related activities in patient, public involvement and engagement, research inclusion and implementation
- Working alongside Health Innovation Wessex, local transformation, quality improvement and innovation teams in ICBs, NHS provider organisations, and care sector
- Mapping current resources/capacity/capability to support knowledge mobilisation across Wessex, and awareness of knowledge mobilisation, attitudes and readiness for change
- Developing case studies of knowledge mobilisation to draw out learning about what works in practice
