Welcome to the Trinity Centre for Practice & Healthcare Innovation (TCPHI), Trinity College Dublin: A JBI Affiliated Group

The Trinity Centre for Practice and Healthcare Innovation (TCPHI) is a research centre based in the School of Nursing & Midwifery, Trinity College Dublin.  This research centre was developed in 2012. Our mission is to work collaboratively with healthcare staff, industry and the public to improve healthcare services and develop, implement and evaluate new innovative healthcare interventions and models of care. The expertise of the TCPHI team in implementation science, healthcare knowledge and experience is available for sharing and supporting research capacity between academic staff, post-doctoral researchers, post graduate research students and staff in affiliated healthcare providers and industry.  We have successful collaborations with a large network of clinical, industry and research partners and are actively engaged in the synthesis and translation of evidence into every day healthcare.

Research Collaboration with Health Service Providers
Trinity College Dublin is closely aligned with several partner healthcare organisations, including large academic teaching hospitals, centres of excellence, regional hospitals, maternity hospitals, children's hospitals, mental health services, and a wide range of community health and social care services. Trinity College Dublin is the linked university to the Dublin Midlands Hospital Groups. The TCPHI, through these networks provides opportunities for researchers to collaborate with healthcare providers in a variety of contexts. Currently the centre is supporting a number of implementation science research projects in collaboration with partner hospitals involving academic staff and clinical staff in clinical practice innovation.
