Disseminating project results
The final result of the completed project must be properly disseminated to all the key stakeholders for their use. The very important motive behind the dissemination of the results of the accomplished project to all the key stakeholders is to provide the genuine and purposeful information about the project development and the project achievement as well as to receive the feedbacks from them so that the project can be accomplished in the better way in future. In addition to this, the dissemination of information and results also ensures that the practices adopted and the outcomes from the project will be adopted in the future in the say way or the enhanced way.
In the wider nursing community, the key stakeholders for the project will the board of directors of the hospital, chief executive officer of the hospital, director and all other staffs of maternal and child health nursing, pediatrics department director, nurse manager of neonatal intensive-care unit (NICU), Staffs of neonatal intensive-care unit, directors of the department of research and director of the physical therapy department as well as evidence based practice (EBP) committee. Finally, other stakeholders include all the patients and publics ("Who are the Stakeholders in Healthcare?," 2005). This reflects that there is a wide variation in the stakeholders’ community and the community is very wide. So, we cannot implement single strategy to disseminate the project information and the results. However, the basic strategy to disseminate the results and the information of the project will be the personalized emails to the directors of the departments, general and mass emails to the general public, news bulletins, health and nursing magazine, as well as the meetings among the staffs and the joint meeting with the public.
One of the effective strategy of disseminating the information of the project is to conduct workshops and conferences where the participants are invited from the diverse society of stakeholders and they are given opportunity to discuss on the achievements of the project, and learn that the inputs and outputs are discussed while the participants learn to make the project successful from such discussion. This type of workshops and conferences offer the room for communication with the stakeholders and the communication occurs in both directional. Directors of the departments, staffs of NICU community, and nursing staffs can deliver their understandings, knowledge and ideas about how the results of the projects can be used.
Conclusion
Hence, the dissemination of the information is very necessary for the upliftment and utilization of the project results. Unless the results are properly disseminated, the information will not be available to decision maker. So, if the dissemination happens, then it can be readily used by the decision maker and enhance the delivery of healthcare service.
