'It seems like common sense now': experiences of allied health clinicians participating in a knowledge translation telementoring program.

Introduction And Aims: Clinicians understanding and applying the skills of knowledge translation is essential for the delivery of high value, effective health care. However, many clinicians lack confidence and capacity to undertake knowledge translation. Our team recently piloted a group telementoring knowledge translation support service (KTSS) with allied health professionals (AHPs) undertaking knowledge translation in their practice.

Knowledge Translation in Dietetics: A Survey of Dietitians' Awareness and Confidence.

This study aimed to determine dietitians' familiarity with knowledge translation (KT), confidence in undertaking KT, and preferences for receiving KT training. An online questionnaire was designed and disseminated to all dietitians working across hospital and health services in Queensland, Australia, for completion over a 6-week period (April-May 2018). Of the 124 respondents, 69% (n = 85) reported being familiar with KT, but only 28% (n = 35) reported being confident in applying KT to their practice.
