Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the Caledonian Development Model, designed to promote evidence-based practice. The model features practice-development activities, benchmarking, knowledge pooling and translation through membership of a community of practice and a virtual college. Twenty-four nurses, from 18 practice sites formed three communities of practice, each selecting evidence-based guidance to implement. A modified group supervision framework empowered nurses to champion local implementation. Outcomes were determined at 6 months.
