Innovation brings evidence to the point of care
The importance of an evidence base for clinical practice through the conduct of primary research cannot be stressed enough. However, there is a vast amount of new knowledge created every day in healthcare and the environment in which health professionals practice is both hectic and unpredictable.
Within the time poor and information rich environment in which they work, the challenge for health professionals has been having the ability to access, appraise and implement this new knowledge as appropriate in clinical practice.
The Joanna Briggs Institute has invested significant time and resources into the development of strategies to assist professionals to achieve evidence-based practice at the point of care.
JBI COnNECT is a dynamic and innovative portal that delivers all of the resources required to achieve evidence-based practice right into the hands of those working in healthcare.
The resources contained via the facility make it simple to access primary and secondary research information, tools to appraise single or multiple research papers and resources to facilitate the utilisation and evaluation of such information in clinical settings.
