Research and Evaluation
To improve health, it is essential to find good evidence about what works and apply that evidence to bring about improved outcomes. When implementing programs, it is important to evaluate their impacts and to understand issues that affect implementation to ensure that programs continue to be delivered effectively and efficiently.
Research
Research and development activities help us identify and develop innovative quality use of medicines (QUM) programs to improve medicine use by consumers and health professionals, and ultimately the health of the community.
Evaluation
Evaluation applies rigorous evaluation approaches to NPS work to support ongoing decision-making within the organisation and ultimately to sustain the provision of a national QUM program.
