Background/Overview

Evidence based practice is an integral part of health care today. You will witness many advances in patient care over your career and you will hopefully be involved in evaluating these changes in nursing practice. Hand washing in 1846 as observed by Dr Ignaz Semmelweis, is a perfect example of Evidence Based Care and how clinical experience, observation and comparison identified patient outcomes in relation to the health professionals who washed their hands compared to those who did not.

‘This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to gather, organise, analyse and present workplace information using available systems and sources. This includes identifying research requirements and sources of information, applying information to a set of facts, evaluating the quality and reliability of the information, and preparing and producing reports’,

‘It applies to individuals in roles in which they are required to apply their broad knowledge of the work environment to analysis and research tasks, evaluate information from a variety of sources and apply solutions to a range of predictable and unpredictable problems’. (Training.gov.au).
