Social Movement Action Framework

The Best Practice Guideline (BPG) Program has supported the leadership and influence of thousands of Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) Best Practice (BP) Champions as change agents engaged in the implementation of evidence-based practice changes.

For example, at Clínica las Condes (CLC), a Latin American Best Practice Spotlight Organization® (BPSO®) in Santiago, Chile, BP Champions are committed volunteers consisting mostly of nurses and other health professionals. Their leadership is evident in the multiple activities they lead, including:

  • reviewing guidelines and organizational policies
  • motivating colleagues
  • presenting guideline recommendations at clinical services meetings twice a year
  • ensuring adherence to practice changes in their clinical units
