This accessible textbook provides an understandable and interactive
introduction to research and evidence-based practice in health and
social care. It is aimed at students in Further Education, on
Foundations Degree courses and in the first year of a diploma or
undergraduate programme in higher education. The book assumes no
prior knowledge of health and social care research on the part of
the reader and uses straightforward language, supported by
illustrative graphs and figures, to describe the research process
and the ways in which evidence is used to change and develop care.
Content is structured in a logical fashion. The text begins by
defining key terms, then takes the reader along a pathway from the
creation of initial research questions or objectives, through the
design and undertaking of a research project, the adoption of
findings into practice and the ongoing audit and evaluation of new
practice to ensure its continued effectiveness. Exercises and case
studies support student learning and the author's personal
reflections on the research process make this a lively and engaging
text. The Health and Social Care series This series of textbooks is
aimed at students on Health and Social Care Foundation Degree
programmes in FE and HE institutions. However, the books also
provide short introductions to key topics for Common Foundation
Programme modules and will be suitable for first-year undergraduate
courses in a variety of Health and Social Care subject areas. Books
in the series will also be useful for those returning to practice
and for overseas nursing students. The series includes three types
of textbook: * Knowledge and Skills books; * Theory and Practice
books; * Specialist books that cover specific professions, topics
and issues. All titles in the series will address the common
elements articulated in relevant sector skill frameworks, for
example, Skills for Care, Skills for Health, the NHS Knowledge and
Skills Framework.
