This situation has prompted a search for new tools that will facilitate implementation and promote the quality of their research. ⋯ Two methodological tools are presented here in the form of self-reflective questions, with some examples from qualitative health studies conducted in Spain, which can help novice researchers to plan how to commence a qualitative project. Some implications for the health research, practice and policy are discussed.
