Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 7   EBP 0901 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Qualitative Evidence Answers How and Why

Captions available

The idea

Qualitative evidence addresses the how and why of healthcare interventions — what something is like, and what it means to the people it happens to.

In practice

A study of what receiving a diagnosis was like for the people who received it.

Where people slip

How and why are not softer versions of whether. They are different questions that no trial answers.
