Evidence-Based Practice in Home Health and Hospice is proudly presented to you by National Association for Home Care & Hospice. Thank you. We hope that you enjoy your course.
Description:
This session is designed to appeal to introductory-level and advanced audiences. Relying on best guesses and/or habit for patient care doesn’t cut it in our regulatory landscape. Evidence-based practice (EBP) conditions caregivers to be more consistent from patient to patient, improving quality scores and patient satisfaction. We’ll begin by defining EBP and reviewing how it really takes form.
Learning Outcomes:
Attendees will develop a solid understanding of the rationale for utilizing EBP in home care and hospice and will discuss their organization’s experience, giving examples of the effects on quality scores and outcomes in multiple projects. This session will provide details of tools to use and ways to get started in using EBP as the basis for clinical practice.
