Practice Facilitation
Practice Facilitation is an established evidence-based intervention to improve primary health care processes and outcomes, including the delivery of preventive services, through the creation of an ongoing, trusting relationship between an external Practice Facilitator (PF) and a clinical practice. In Practice Facilitation, a trained PF uses organization development, project management, quality improvement, and practice improvement approaches to build the internal capacity of a clinic to support it in reaching its goals for healthcare delivery, A PF's work includes relationship-building, helping to identify a clinic change champion, and facilitating change through logistical support, technical assistance, and external partnership building.
