Perceived Research Culture and Capacity within the Metro South Hospital Health Service

Overview

A strong research culture is central to informing evidence-based practice and improving performance within healthcare services. Evidence identifies the need for multi-tiered research support, particularly at the team level, to reduce local barriers to clinician led research.

This research project aims to assess the perceived research culture and capacity across Metro South Hospital and Health Services, including PAH, Redland, QEII, Logan, Beaudesert and Community and Oral Health.
