Joddrell, P. orcid.org/0000-0002-8210-6508, Manson, J., Kyeremateng, S. et al. (5 more authors) (2024) Six years of Project ECHO: Implementation and evaluation of a hospice-led multiprofessional education programme. Health Informatics Journal, 30 (4). ISSN 1460-4582
Abstract
Objectives: This article reports on the implementation and evaluation of an established technology-enabled collaborative learning programme (Project ECHO) at an independent UK hospice in the North of England over a 6-year period. Methods: An independent audit of collated, anonymised data from the programme is used to report attendance patterns and session evaluations. Results: The results show a gradual increase in attendances, programmes, sessions and hours of education, coupled with consistently positive evaluation reports. Conclusion: This supports existing evidence that Project ECHO is an effective method of delivering remote healthcare education, demonstrating impact on the first three levels of Moore’s education framework; participation, satisfaction and learning. Future expansion in terms of geography and topics covered is proposed, alongside enhanced evaluation methods to demonstrate impact at the higher levels of Moore’s framework.
