Health professionals are expected to use current best evidence in their clinical practice. Evidence-based practice (EBP) is an approach that integrates three components in clinical decision-making: current best evidence, clinical expertise, and patient perspective. While considerable information is available on evidence-based practice, reports regarding evidence-based practice may conflict or be confusing.

• Is the information valid? Disinformation abounds.  Questions about source validity?

The practitioner is often challenged to determine which studies are most credible and relevant and how to compare conflicting or inconclusive results on the same program model from different studies.  This presentation will review EBP site, how to best identify valid resources and take a journey through some sites with examples for how to use.

Objectives:

• The learner will be able to define what a “verified resource” for evidence-based practice is.
• The learner will be able to describe the value of these resources and what makes each a verified resource.
• The learner will be able to identify verified resources with evidence-based practices applicable to case management practice.
• The learner will be able to view a demonstration search of each resource for evidence-based practices
