Evidence-based Practice in Social Work: Development of a New Professional Culture (Core Concepts in Health and Social Care) - Softcover
Synopsis
The role of evidence-based practice is one of most central and controversial issues in social work today. This concise text introduces key concepts and processes of evidence-based practice whilst engaging with contemporary debates about its relevance and practicality.

- Why evidence-based practice is relevant to social work.
- The challenges that the realities of social work practice present to models of evidence-based practice.
- Concepts of evidence-based practice as a process and professional culture.
- The role and nature of evidence.
- How evidence-based practice can be implemented and the importance of the organisational context.
- The globalization of evidence-based practice, including issues of cultural diversity and adaptability of evidence-based interventions.
- Controversies and criticism of evidence-based practice.
Written by internationally well-respected experts, this text is an important read for all those with an interest in the area, from social work students to academics and researchers.
