For achieving sustainability, there should be a broad support to the implemented practice amongst those who have implemented it, or by those who intend to. Continuation of the practice can be ensured through institutional anchoring and/or ownership by the relevant stakeholders or communities, facilitated by implementation working group and/or core leadership group.
Establishing and/or fostering connections with decision-makers and the local community is another important mechanism for building the sustainability and the potential for scalability.

QCR was tested in a series of pilot actions across eight different countries to improve and evaluate existing practices. This has provided a wealth of information on the barriers and facilitators related to any of the specific QCR’s, as well as the contextual elements of each healthcare system where they were implemented.
Learn how we implemented the CHRODIS Recommendations and Criteria in multiple locations:

Now that the network of enthusiastic colleagues is getting stronger and bigger, we are able to produce breakthrough ideas, successfully manage the process in line with the results and still keep our minds open to ideas of others. The CHRODIS PLUS Joint Action has the opportunity to open many doors, that may lead to better health in EU, and we believe that ‘chrodisians’ have the knowledge, experience, energy and wisdom to make it happen. From producing results at the personal/patient level to working with policy makers from Member States, and doing all of that with passion, is how we personally see the CHRODIS PLUS family”.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Partner organisations” tab_id=”1588681899672-625471c6-123c”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1603185646785{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]- WP Leader: National Institute of Health (ISS), Italy.
