Mapping regional implementation of 'Making Every Contact Count': mixed-methods evaluation of implementation stage, strategies, barriers and facilitators of implementation.

The NENC MECC programme is built around regional leadership that supports the implementation process. This process evaluation identified key influences of MECC implementation across the region. We discuss evidence-based recommendation for policy and practice that can be taken forward to develop targeted strategies to support future MECC implementation. For example, a co-ordinated infrastructure and strategy is needed to combat delivery and implementation issues identified.
