The use of PMAs by health workers in Fiji and other Pacific island countries could potentially rectify gaps in maternal and neonatal service delivery.

The field of KT and implementation science is growing in Canada, Australia, and worldwide. In Canada, funding agency mandates require researchers to engage with stakeholders, including policy and decision makers, practitioners, and consumers of health services (Goering, Boydell, & Pignatiello, 2008). For example, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) is a worldwide pioneer in promoting and supporting KT initiatives aimed at the meaningful involvement of stakeholder communities in research funding and translation for the purposes of effective and innovative changes in health, whether it be at the policy, practice, or product level (CIHR, 2012). CIHR has a strong KT component including dedicated funding streams and strategic initiatives, training programs, and awards. The CIHR definition of KT is taken up globally, along with the mandate of many federal health care funding bodies to fund KT activities and research. CHIR (2012) defines KT as "a dynamic and iterative process that includes the synthesis, dissemination, exchange and ethically sound application of knowledge to improve 694840D PSXXX10.

The framework identifies factors that will facilitate delivery of high-quality, sustainable, individualized private therapy services for people with a disability in rural Australia under the NDIS and emphasizes the need to reconceptualize the nature of private therapy service delivery. Implications for Rehabilitation Rural private therapists need upskilling to work with individuals with disability who have individual funding such as that provided by the Australian National Disability Insurance Scheme. Therapists working in rural communities need to consider alternative ways of delivering therapy to individuals with disability beyond the traditional one-on-one therapy models. Rural private therapists need support to work collaboratively with individuals with disability and the local community. Rural private therapists should harness locally available and broader networks, resources and processes to meet the needs and goals of individuals with disability.
