RNAO is excited to announce that we are now accepting letters of intent from Ontario Health Teams (OHT) interested in joining RNAO’s Best Practice Spotlight Organization® (BPSO) OHT program. 

This is an opportunity for your OHT to advance evidence-based practice and improve health outcomes. The BPSO OHT model involves a collaborative partnership to collectively implement best practice guidelines as one coordinated team, and is designed to help teams — across sectors and disciplines — work together to achieve the quadruple aim and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.  

Interested OHTs are asked to submit a letter of intent online by Tuesday, May 24, 2022. Letters should include:

• name of OHT and key contact person
• OHT status (i.e., in discovery, in development, OHT candidate)
• sectors interested in joining the BPSO OHT program
• an explanation of why you would like to become a BPSO OHT
• a brief description of your readiness to join BPSO OHT network (e.g., interest or experience with RNAO's best practice guidelines; participation of OHT partners within the BPSO program)
• a copy of your OHT application (optional)

Important upcoming dates:

• Letter of intent due – Tuesday, May 24, 2022
• BPSO OHTs selected and BPSO OHT agreement signed – June/July 2022
• Virtual launch of cohort three – September 2022
