Cleary-Holdforth and Leufer (2009) explains that evidence based practice is a holistic approach to the delivery of care with the individual at the centre. It involves more than simply using research and is a partnership between inter-professional clinicians, patients and the best available evidence to ensure optimal care for the patient. In terms of evidence based practice this makes it important as it outcome to making patients care better as well as improving the patient exceptions of care. It has been suggested that evidence-based practice is important in health care as it provides the care that meets the individual needs of the patients and helps us identifies gaps in knowledge when we research into subjects.
