title: Monitoring unit-based innovations: a process evaluation approach.
abstract: A comprehensive program evaluation helps assure that the program envisioned is implemented; or helps determine why it failed. It strengthens assumption about causality by clarifying the relationships between intervention and outcome. A program evaluation planning map can be helpful in measuring the extent of professional practice model implementation.
