Chapter 366creating awareness, and insights about implementation, and working together in a planned manner. CoP-1 started in June 2019 to prepare participating organisations for the implementation of the methods MDET and %u201cWith other eyes%u201d, and was still running during the data analysis of the current study. Due to COVID-19 in 2020 the focus of this CoP changed to implementing MDET only. CoP-2 started in October 2021 to design implementation strategies for the E-tool %u201cNeeds Assessment Framework%u201d and finished in 2022. ParticipantsIn CoP-1, six care organisations participated, in CoP-2 four organisations. Two of these organisations participated in both CoP. The care organisations varied in size from very large (14,000 clients living in areas across the Netherlands) to small (300 clients living in one area). They all provided longterm residential care for clients with severe to mild intellectual disabilities with challenging behaviour. Care organisations chose employees who would be involved in implementing the three methods as CoP participants. In the first meeting of CoP-1, participants of organisations were policymakers (3) with experience in change processes or affinity with legislation concerning restrictive measures, frontline managers (3), behavioural consultants (two persons with a background in psychology and pedagogical science) and one support staff worker with experience in the method %u201cWith other eyes%u201d. Also, three experts-by-experience of one organisation participated. They were persons with a mild intellectual disability who lived in care homes and worked as experts-by-experience who have been trained for this job. In this first meeting five researchers were present. All but one policymaker and one manager were present in the second meeting. Of the four researchers in the second meeting, three also had been present in the first. In both meetings, students were present to observe. They did not contribute to our data collection. In the first meeting of CoP-2, participants of organisations were policymakers (4) with an affinity for implementing the Care and Coercion Act, support staff workers who were assigned with the role of implementer in their care team (2), researchers (3) and one behavioural consultant. Experts-by-experience did not participate in this CoP. One of the researchers was only present to observe, as were two students.
