The STAR Log provides a simplified, centralized way for research, intervention development, or evaluation teams to track implementation strategies so you can evaluate progress and measure effective implementation of a practice or intervention.
How Can This Help?
A research team member can fill out the spreadsheet as the study or project progresses to:
- Document the steps and methods needed to implement and sustain effective interventions, programs, and services
- Measure how much and how well an intervention was delivered (and what to do next)
- Evaluate the likelihood that an intervention will be used and sustained over time
Who Should Use This?
- Researchers who want to document the supports provided as part of their research study, to be able to replicate it, or make sense of patient outcomes (e.g., some patient groups did better than others, patients at some clinics did better than others)
- Providers who want to document the support provided to get an intervention up and running in a setting, so that they can replicate it, scale it up, or scale it out.
When Should You Use This
The STAR Log can be used at any time in a project and updated on a cadence that makes sense for a project team.
