Process evaluation of a person-centred outcome measures-based quality improvement program in a hospital-based palliative care in mainland China
To effectively implement a PCOMs-based quality improvement program into routine clinical practice, a "top-down" followed by a "bottom-up" implementation approach is recommended. Effectively utilizing the program to achieve its value and fit into existing workflows without adding unnecessary workload could ensure its sustainability. Furthermore, in countries and regions where palliative care is emerging, priorities should focus on enhancing clinicians' knowledge, self-efficacy, and supporting multidisciplinary collaboration.
