Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 4   EBP 0484 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Source Three — Patient-Valued Preferences

Captions available

The idea

Patient-valued preferences and concerns determine whether evidence-based care is acceptable to the individual patient.

In practice

A well-supported intervention that a patient declines once told what it involves.

Where people slip

Acceptability is decided by the patient, not by the strength of the evidence. Care that is evidence-based and refused has not been delivered.
