CASP elearning - introduction to evidence based practice

Aren't we already doing it?

The main issues that have to be addressed are:

the time it takes to get hold of evidence–based information
skills in assessing the quality of evidence
integrating the evidence with clinical expertise and patient values in shared decision–making.

This resource focuses on the skills needed to identify questions and assess the quality of evidence. You can find out more about how new ways of locating information (such as evidence based summaries and digests) are developing which can help you to make the best use of your time at the National electronic Library for Health (NeLH).
