title: The making of an education day in a canadian health care facility.
abstract: The benefits of an education day have been documented within a variety of disciplines; however, there is a paucity of up-to-date knowledge on the implementation and planning phases, and these phases are addressed in this article. Having knowledge of what form of delivery education can take can affect employer-provided education throughout health care. This article will benefit staff development educators by addressing issues in staff development and the role that an education day can have in health care facilities.
