  Evaluation objectives:
  What to expect from it?
  What do we want to do with the results?

  Stakeholders, actors, and aspects of the system that need to be assessed

• 

  Evaluation factors and their data collection and analysis methods

• 

  Overall score for the evaluation, individual scores for each factor, recommendations to remediate diagnosed issues

• 

  Implementation by the healthcare organization of the toolkit's recommendations

• 

  Monitoring by the toolkit of the impact of remedial actions

After monitoring the impact of the remedial actions, the question must be raised as to whether the system requires additional evaluation. If the answer is yes, a new assessment process is initiated; if no, the current evaluation process ends.
