End-of-life (EOL) care is an area of health services that will ultimately affect us all. To share the knowledge emerging from EOL research and to address inequities in the quality of EOL care in Nova Scotia, a knowledge exchange (KE) trainee was hired to translate research and surveillance into a Surveillance Report. The purpose of this paper is to reflect upon this initiative and share the research team's perspectives on their KE experiences. We describe four key competencies of the KE trainee selected, and discuss lessons learned from this KE trainee experience, to expand our understanding of KE.
临终关怀是医疗卫生服务领域中最终会影响到我们所有人的一个方面。为了分享临终关怀研究中涌现的知识,并解决新斯科舍省临终关怀质量方面的不平等问题,我们聘请了一名知识交流(KE)实习生,将研究和监测内容转化为一份监测报告。本文旨在反思这一举措,并分享研究团队对其知识交流经历的看法。我们描述了所选定的知识交流实习生的四项关键能力,并讨论了从这次知识交流实习生经历中吸取的经验教训,以加深我们对知识交流的理解。
