Introduction

Evidence does not speak for itself but needs to be mobilised at the right time, and through the right people, to make a difference in decision making.1

Healthcare is a knowledge industry. It is not enough to have the right healthcare teams in the right place, collaborating to deliver high quality, efficient patient care. It is essential that they use the right knowledge and evidence at the right time. The knowledge and know-how of staff are precious assets. Mobilising knowledge to Board and ward Applying and embedding knowledge into action is the currency of successful organisations. Health Education England (HEE) has identified a priority for NHS library and knowledge services to mobilise the evidence base, bringing it to the boardroom and the bedside. HEE is committed to building a flexible workforce which:

Is responsive to innovation and new technologies

Is knowledgeable about best practice, research and innovation

Promotes adoption and dissemination of better quality service delivery Taking the opportunity: progressively enhancing skills

A wealth of opportunities and learning resources have been put in place enabling individuals to progressively enhance their skills, confidence and roles in mobilising evidence and organisational knowledge. As a small, specialised workforce in the NHS, librarians and knowledge specialists can make a critical contribution to improving quality outcomes and meeting the productivity and performance challenge. Alongside well established roles that ensure that teams are sighted on evidence from research to inform decision-making, targeting and tailoring information to manage information overload, organising that body of knowledge and keeping colleagues up to date, librarians and knowledge specialists are increasingly called upon to take a more active role as knowledge brokers. The need is there.
