Intervention Functions and comments around APEASE criteria | ||||||||||
Education | Education is affordable and practical within existing roles and orientation processes, however Excessive educational focus may lead to neglect in other domains. Educational meetings alone are unlikely to effectively change complex behaviours [26]. This was the main intervention in initial implementation that had suboptimal uptake | |||||||||
Persuasion | Using persuasive communication to induce positive feelings to stimulate use of EDWHAT by senior staff, managers and peers all existing roles. But need to consider method of persuasion not to be construed as “pushy”. Needs to be conducted equitably – not single out particular staff | |||||||||
Incentivisation | Creating an expectation of award (incentive) is a crucial characteristic for the intervention, given the competing demands on nurse time, and the lack of existing recognition for use of the tool. Financial incentives are not affordable or practical, however awards, recognition and positive feedback may be effective. Can be seen as “core business so shouldn’t need incentive”. Care must be taken that the incentive chosen must be widely available – all staff have opportunity for acknowledgement | |||||||||
Coercion | Creating expectation of punishment or cost through coercion while affordable and possible within existing roles, is not appropriate | |||||||||
Training | Imparting skills is affordable and practical within existing roles and orientation processes but staff need opportunity and motivation to use them | |||||||||
Restriction | Using rules to increase staff using the tool by reducing competing behaviours is possible within existing resources and structure. Particular care to be taken to ensure equitable reinforcement for all staff | |||||||||
Environmental restructuring | Changing the physical context is crucial. It can be conducted with existing IT and senior nursing staff roles. Additional computers are not an onerous budget item and a priority | |||||||||
Modelling | Providing an example for people to aspire to or imitate by modelling is affordable, practical, effective, acceptable and equitable within existing roles and orientation processes. | |||||||||
Enablement | Increasing the means and reducing barriers to increase capability and opportunity for staff to use the tool through enablement Affordable, practical, effective, acceptable and equitable within existing roles and orientation processes. | |||||||||
