Evidence-Based Practice in Occupational Therapy

Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) in Occupational Therapy is a approach that integrates the best current research evidence, the therapist’s clinical expertise, and the client’s preferences and goals. It ensures that therapy decisions are based on proven methods and tailored to each individual, promoting effective and personalized care. EBP involves continuously reviewing scientific studies, applying relevant findings, and considering what the client values most, leading to better outcomes and more informed, confidence-inspiring treatment strategies.
