Use the QA protocol template on the Eastern Health Research and Ethics Guidance webpage. Submit the Quality Assurance (QA) VIC application form via Ethical Review Manager (ERM).\nFor other projects not qualifying as QA, an ethics application must be lodged via the Ethical Review Manager (ERM) using Human Research Ethics Application (HREA) Form. *NOTE: Eastern Health does not accept the Victorian Low Risk Form (Low Risk VIC).\nEnsure you submit this protocol and any other supporting documents such as data collection templates, surveys, etc. with your ethics application.\nProjects requiring ethical approval cannot commence until such approval is granted.\nContact the Office of Research and Ethics team for further details: \u0013 HYPERLINK \"mailto:ethics@easternhealth.org.au\" \u0014ethics@easternhealth.org.au\u0015\nNOTE: Please use the Footer for your protocol version number and date (do NOT alter the template version number and date).\n\u000f\nPROJECT TITLE\nWhat is the title of the project? Ensure this reflects the aims and methodology.\nProject team\nList the full name, affiliations, positions, responsibilities and contact details of all researchers involved in the proposed project. Include description of:\nCoordinating Principal Investigator (CPI) – only if multi-site/multi-organization project. All sites under Eastern Health are considered as one site.\nPrincipal Investigator (PI) – the person who has the overall responsibility of the whole project. There should be only one PI per project.\nAssociate Investigator (AI) – all others who will be involved in the project.\nRESOURCES\nWhat resources or funding would be required to undertake the project? What impact could the project have on staffing? Is there external funding available? Would additional resources or funding be required from Eastern Health? Are there any grants available that could help fund the project?\nIf the project is not funded by a grant or drug companies list as ‘No external grant funding’.\nSYNOPSIS\nA brief but clear summary of what your research is about. It outlines the key aspects of what you will investigate as well as the expected outcomes. It briefly covers the what, why and how of your research. A good way to evaluate if you have written a strong synopsis is to get somebody to read it without reading the rest of your research proposal. Would they know what your research is about?\nBACKGROUND\nIn one or two paragraphs provide background information required to set the CONTEXT of the project. (i.e. what you think the problem is, do you have any proof that there is a problem or it is a perceived problem from your point of view.)\nRationale/Justification (i.e. how the research w","cbCaibAIdqFWKj33","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibAIdqFWKj33","docx",47400,"English","# Acknowledgement and submission guidance\n## Ethics consideration before submission\n# Protocol sections\n## Project title\n## Project team\n## Resources\n## Synopsis\n## Background\n## Literature review\n## Research question / aim\n## Methodology","[{\"question\":\"How does the template determine whether ethics approval is required and what level is needed?\",\"answer\":\"It directs researchers to use the Level of Risk Checklist from the Eastern Health Research Ethics Guidance webpage to identify the required level of ethics approval or further guidance.\"},{\"question\":\"What guidance does the template provide for Quality Assurance (QA) versus other projects?\",\"answer\":\"QA audits do not require ethics review; researchers should use the QA protocol template and submit the QA VIC application via the Ethical Review Manager (ERM).
