An evaluation of Ways of Knowing in healthcare: A program designed to build cultural safety and collaborative practice
Using a logic model evaluation process, this research explores how the "Ways of Knowing" program is being received by staff and students, and to what extent it has supported the development of collaborative and culturally safe capabilities.
Both qualitative and quantitative research methods are used to support the cultural and psychological safety of the research processes. The outcomes will inform how we can continue to improve the experience and impact of the Ways of Knowing curriculum.
This project was supported by an MDHS Diversity and Inclusion Grant 2021.
