Description: GTO strengthens the knowledge, attitudes, and skills practitioners need to carry out evidence based programs. GTO consists of a series of steps practitioners should follow in order to obtain positive results and then provides them with the guidance necessary to complete those steps with quality. According to GTO, carrying out an evidence based program includes a series of steps corresponding to three general areas: (1) planning - e.g., developing goals and performance targets, ensuring staff are trained in the evidence based program; (2) implementation - e.g., monitoring program activities, maintaining adherence to an evidence based program model, supervision; and (3) self-evaluation - e.g., tracking patient outcomes, using data to improve program operations.
