The implementation phase of the WMR-PRIME project was successfully completed. Between September 2024 and March 2025, the practice recommendations were adapted and implemented on a clinic-specific basis by those responsible for implementation at the participating clinics with the support of Stefanie Freytag, research associate at the Nordhausen University of Applied Sciences. Findings from the six-month implementation phase are currently being used to design the implementation guideline. The guideline is intended to enable clinics to implement the WMR practice recommendations themselves in the future.
