Misconception: A Good Guideline Implements Itself
Captions available
The idea
The quality of a guideline and the success of its implementation are separate questions. A rigorously developed guideline stalls in a setting without the context, culture and supports to carry it.
In practice
A high-scoring guideline that changed nothing on the unit that adopted it.
Where people slip
This is why appraisal ends at question three. Applicability is asked of your setting, not of the document.
