The implementation of diabetic care in The Netherlands: implementation of guidelines. Workshop

PMCID: PMC3031849

Abstract

Profound ideas do not always end in profound results. Is the design wrong, or are major issues forgotten during the implementation? The evidence of a diabetics case in NL is used to show that the implementation of a sound protocol is more than barely medical. Integrating an organizational change perspective increases understanding and will improve results.

Keywords: diabetes, change management
