A Beginner's Guide to Evidence-Based Practice in Health and Social Care 4e Helen Aveyard 4th edition

The book provides a simple introduction to evidence-based practice in the field of health and social care. Evidence-based practice is a concept and theme that underpins all modules across the nursing and healthcare curriculum and will come to the fore for healthcare students when taking their Research Methods, Dissertation or Literature Review modules. However, despite being a term that is widely used and regularly cited, students often fail to fully grasp what it is, why it is so important and how it applies to the practical, non-academic world.

This book bridges that gap by introducing concepts in a very basic way to help those without much clinical experience to understand what is at the heart of good evidence-based practice.
