Healthcare personnel who interact with patients and their families can learn from the families’ experiences when a loved one is affected by dementia.

The study suggests that if evidence-based practice is taught systematically, it affects the students' learning outcome.

Helath personnel can learn from the pain team when they have pharmacology-related questions and are drawing up treatment plans, and when they are establishing open and trusting relations with the patient.

Healthcare personnel, the police and the fire and rescue service, as well as voluntary groups, felt that they were supported by management, worked well together and shared a sense of pride in their efforts.

People with early stage dementia can have different insights into their disease, and their motivation to participate in conversations with therapists can vary. A manual-based intervention can help find a relevant goal for the therapy based on the person’s circumstances.

Surgical departments and educational institutions lack an organisational structure and culture that supports evidence-based practice. This may affect patient safety.

Students who used this framework for communication conveyed more specific observations, gave fewer unfounded opinions, and experienced improvements in teamwork and patient safety.

Intensive care patients often suffer from undertreated pain. A pain assessment tool in a Norwegian version may increase the quality of patient treatment.
