What is EBP?
EBP refers to the use of treatment methods and techniques that are grounded in research based literature. The literature used is the most relevant, current and valid evidence available for making decisions about the care of individual patients. It gives us the ability to integrate research into practice.
Having the latest research and knowing how to apply it to individual patients gives the Strive! team therapist the advantage of using the best information and methods in their clinical practice! Upon evaluation, we compare our findings with the most recent research to customize the patient plan of care.
How do we train our staff to use EBP?- A Formal Online Continuing Education Course is used to educate our clinicians. This intense, state certified course teaches the therapist techniques for accessing the EBP information, as well as determining the accuracy and relevance of the information provided.
- Clinical Practice EBP Seminars focus on primary conditions seen in our centers. Our clinical staff receives intensive training in both the science and practical application of EBP. Taught by nationally known clinical educators, these courses are actual hands-on laboratory sessions.
EBP email updates are sent which contain recent research articles. This subscription service keeps our therapists abreast of the most current information relevant to our profession.
What does this mean to you?
Better care and optimal outcomes for patients, with reassurance and accountability to payers, patients and referral sources!
