How does HOBIC fit with the RNAO Best Practice Guidelines (BPGs)?
Through funding provided by the Ministry, the RNAO has taken a leadership role in the introduction, development, implementation and promotion of BPGs in Ontario. These evidence-based practice guidelines can guide the practice of nurses and other clinicians. The evidence-based outcome measures that were developed through HOBIC will support the evaluation of specific BPGs, e.g., Prevention of Falls and Falls Injuries in the Older Adult.
