Domains for Implementation
The Consortium activities are guided by the Active Implementation Frameworks developed by the National Implementation Research Network (https://nirn.fpg.unc.edu/) and adapted by the SCI Knowledge Mobilization Network (SCI KMN). For more information about these Implementation Science-based frameworks see the Guide that also outlines the experiences of the SCI KMN in implementing best practice in SCI rehabilitation.
Implementation Science involves a systematic and intentional approach that facilitates adherence to evidence-informed steps and principles associated with good implementation practice. Some of the steps are illustrated in the accompanying diagram;
Implementation:
“A specified set of purposeful activities at the practice, program, and system level designed to put into place a practice, program or intervention of known dimensions with fidelity.”

DO: Do it (be sure)
STUDY: Analyze results
ACT: Make adjustments
CYCLE: Do over and over
