What is EBP?

 

“Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a problem-solving approach to the delivery of health care that integrates the best evidence from studies and patient care data with clinician expertise and patient preferences and values. When delivered in a context of caring and in a supportive organizational culture, the highest quality of care and best patient outcomes can be achieved" (Stillwell, Fineout-Overholt, Melnyk, & Williamson, 2010, p. 58).
