Best Practice Spotlight Organization Candidate “Knowledge in Motion”

Best Practice Spotlight Organization

In April 2009, the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) announced that Bloorview Kids Rehab has been accepted into their Best Practice Spotlight Organization (BPSO) candidacy program.  

Bloorview is one of 16 health-care organizations selected to participate in this program, funded by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. The goal of the program is to implement and evaluate internationally recognized nursing best practices.

The partnership is dynamic and long term, focusing on making a positive impact on patient care in the province.

Bloorview will partner with RNAO over the next three years to implement three of their Best Practice Guidelines:

Over the next three years this web page will be used as a communication vehicle to keep you up-to-date as individual guideline teams plan, implement and evaluate the guidelines listed above under the guidance of an organizational steering committee.

What’s New!
The BPSO Steering Committee has been established.  

The mandate of the BPSO Steering Committee is to improve excellence in nursing practice through:

  • Co-ordinating and monitoring the implementation of the three selected Best Practice Guidelines (BPG) recommendations successfully
  • Increasing the use of evidence-informed practice
  • Ensuring the fulfillment of RNAO agreement obligations

The committee will help in setting priorities, identify gaps and opportunities to enhance comprehensiveness of activities for each selected BPG, and streamline planning activities.
