This book aims to provide a practical introduction to and overview of the development and implementation of EBP. Reflecting both the clinical and managerial agendas, it describes the processes involved in defining, identifying and locating appropriate evidence for practice, and furthermore, addresses the significant issues in changing attitudes to practice. Extensively using case studies, reflective exercises and practice checklists, this book will demystify issues and provide a practical source of information which readers can clearly use to develop their own practice and use evidence as a basis for clinical decisions.
