This article presents how the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) was used to support the adoption of an online dementia education game in Canadian hospitals and long-term care homes (LTC). The dementia education was codeveloped with local staff and patient partners to teach practical person-centered care communication techniques. Research Design and Methods CFIR guided our strategy development for overcoming barriers to implementation. Research meetings were conducted with practice leaders, frontline health care workers, and a patient partner. Our analysis examined 4 interactive domains: intervention, inner context, outer settings, and individuals involved and implementation process. Results Our analysis identified 5 effective strategies: Easy access, Give extrinsic and intrinsic rewards, Apply implementation science theory, Multiple tools, and Engagement of champion. The CFIR provided a systematic process, a comprehensive understanding of barriers, and possible enabling strategies to implement gamified dementia education. Interdisciplinary staff (n = 3,025) in 10 hospitals and 10 LTC played online games. The evaluation showed positive outcomes in knowledge improvement in person-centered dementia care. Discussion and Implications Gamified education in dementia care offers a social experience and a component of fun to promote adoption. In addition, CFIR is useful for engaging stakeholders to conduct project planning and team reflection for implementation. The real-time discussion and adjustment helped overcome challenges and timely meet the needs of multiple organizations. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
