Finally, it enhances professional and
service user and carer learning and
development opportunities to build
competence and capacity in light of
the changing contexts of practice.
This strategy sets out our plan in
Northern Ireland to move forward
beyond 2020. It documents how
we are going to promote and
implement the desired culture of
evidence - informed practice to instill
confidence, integrity and credibility
and ensure quality improved service
user and carer outcomes. This will
be achieved through the delivery
of research, evaluation and audit
activity across services. Alongside
this strategy there will be a full
implementation plan which will look
at how the strategy will be put into
practice and ensure the necessary
ownership with identified roles and
responsibilities. The implementation
plan will highlight a small number of
agreed outcome measures, which
over the years will be populated with
demonstrable evidence of impact.
