    Evidence-Based Practice (EBP)

    • EBP: Combining professional clinical knowledge with researched data to inform practice.
    • EBP Elements:
      • Clinical Expertise: Using clinical experience and skills to understand patient's risks, benefits, and values
      • Research Evidence: Findings of scientific studies on treatments, diagnoses, and other methods' effectiveness
