Product Description:

Evidence-based practice is highly valued by health professionals for its predictive capacity. Yet, as affirmed by the NASDDDS/AUCD Evidence-Based Policy Initiative, this approach to health care may inadvertently contribute to inequity of access to health support services & policy. This study was conducted to examine how health professional faculty, students, & curricula understand & reconcile evidence-based knowledge with other valuable forms of knowing that support diversity and health equity.
