The evaluation cycle

Using and generating evidence to inform decision making is vital to your role as a commissioner of health and social care.

Use the steps in the evaluation cycle to help you to develop appropriate evaluation plans for the services you commission.

CASE STUDY: GP Alcohol Liaison Nurse Pilot This case study is the evaluation of a pilot service for a GP Alcohol Liaison Nurse. The service was evaluated through its second year, and the evaluation findings were used to inform whether the service was to be fully commissioned following completion of the pilot phase.
