Policy Brief (Cent Home Care Policy Res). 2001 Fall(5):1-6.
This policy brief reports the results of a study that examined how policy makers acquire information about long-term care (LTC) and why research findings in the field often don't filter through to them. It describes the "brokers" that provide LTC research information to policy makers and outlines what can be done to make certain such information reaches policy makers and is suited to their needs. It concludes by recommending that more effort be put into disseminating LTC research information, both to communicate more effectively within the resource constraints that currently exist and to encourage increased investment in research brokering activities for the future.
本政策简报报告了一项研究的结果，该研究考察了政策制定者如何获取有关长期护理（LTC）的信息，以及为何该领域的研究结果常常未能传达给他们。它描述了向政策制定者提供长期护理研究信息的“信息中介”，并概述了为确保此类信息能传达给政策制定者并满足其需求可采取的措施。报告最后建议，应加大力度传播长期护理研究信息，既要在当前存在的资源限制范围内更有效地进行沟通，也要鼓励未来增加对研究中介活动的投入。
