| Summary |
This study aimed to examine the experience of practice innovation in child and family health (CFH) service in Australia and New Zealand. This was the first stage of a larger program addressing priority issues in child and family health including health service reform and health professional education. The study explored the implementation of the Family Partnership Model (FPM) in three child and family health services in Australia and New Zealand. The FPM is an internationally-recognised exemplar of co-productive partnership practice, and has been adopted by all Australian states as the preferred model for providing universal child health services. Unlike previous studies of the FPM that assess its impact on individuals and families, this case study used in-depth qualitative methods to investigate the complex process in which health practitioners learn about a new way of working with families and how they incorporate new insights into their practice. They study also considers how innovative models of service delivery are implemented within health systems and how they are sustained over time |
