Evidence based practice testimonials

Clinical Pharmacy student testimonials

“Evidence Based Practice is now very much in the forefront of my way of thinking and how I go about problem solving. It has completely changed the way I evaluate a problem and how I will recommend others go about finding answers.  I often visualise in my mind the pyramid of evidence, starting from the top and working down.”  2005 Evidence Based Practice student.

“EBP has changed the way I will go about gathering resources and information and how I think about or interpret the information I obtain.  I realize how ill-prepared I was to develop and recommend treatment guidelines and to implement those guidelines for use in clinical practice.  I now realize how important it is to use good quality or high level evidence to base clinical decisions on and how important it is to review those guidelines regularly to ensure that they are based on current best practice.”  2005 Evidence Based Practice student.

“This module has DEFINITELY opened up my eyes to the number of information sources there are out there in practice! Before I was relying on textbooks, AMH, APP guide, and the Auspharmacist website. Since completing this module, I have found using different databases so much easier as previously I didn't understand how to do an effective search.”  2005 Evidence Based Practice student.

“Evidence based practice is now part of my work ethic.  This module has given me confidence to challenge outdated practices, and I hope to make a difference." 2005 Evidence Based Practice student.
