When could the CSS model be used?

Clinicians can use this model to design projects that may start from different premises, for example:

• Exploratory projects
  Use exploratory projects to gauge whether current practice is actually congruent with evidence. While there is a wealth of data collected in clinical settings, it does not often provide clinicians with useful feedback about practice and how it relates to evidence. Clinicians can use the model to understand and systematically analyse their practice. Depending on results, strategies to support better practice may or may not be necessary.
  
  
• Practice-change projects
  Use practice-change projects to address an already known or perceived gap between current practice and evidence. Here the project aims to improve practice from the outset and clinicians can use the model to design a systematic approach to achieve this aim.
