Why EBP? EBP for Policy and Macro-practice Too Chambers, D. (2007). INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 3
Why Evidence-Based Practice? • Important for outcomes and accountability – costs, replicability, standards, efficiency, quality improvement. • Connect research to practice and policy - usefulness, applicability, relevance, adoption. • Important for effectiveness – – what works – for whom – • Make optimal practice decisions made on research • Balance effective interventions with diversity – individual, culture and community. • Ethical obligation to use what works INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 4
Definitions • EBP is a process in which the practitioner combines well -researched interventions with (clinical) practice experience, ethics and client system preferences and culture - to guide and inform the delivery of treatments and services. • EBP – specific practices • EBP – specific programs INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 5
Definitions • Evidence-based practice is defined by the Institute of Medicine as the integration of best researched evidence and clinical expertise with patient values. (IOM Committee on Quality of Health Care in America (2001). Crossing the Quality Chasm. Washington, DC: National Academies Press. ) • "Evidence-based practices are interventions for which there is consistent scientific evidence showing that they improve client outcomes. " (Drake et al. , 2001, p. 180) INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 6
EBP Processes • Developing Evidence – Emphasize research with potential to “change practice” – Produce findings applicable to current service delivery – Involve clients/consumers/practitioners in research design and studies • Disseminating Evidence – Transportability – Representativeness • Adopting/Adapting Evidence • Adherence, access and preference • Health disparities INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 7

REACH-SW Purpose § REACH-SW is designed to help faculty incorporate the application of EBP into their existing course content using an infusion model. § EBP content is incorporated into existing course materials, augmenting the faculty member’s expertise with ready-made resources to adapt to specific course content (e. g. , student classroom activities, case examples, and assignments). § This approach is designed to help faculty bring an evidence-based approach into every course, rather than having to require new courses to cover this content or adding on content. INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 28
Approach • REACH-SW supports social work faculty and programs in helping students to: § Understand the importance, value, benefits, and limitations of EBP approaches. § Learn how to conduct EBP as a process (Gibbs 7 -step model) in real-world settings. § Learn how to find, evaluate, adapt, and apply evidence-based practices (or EBIs, EBT, etc. ). § Develop critical thinking skills as a “lifelong learner. ” § Increase scientific literacy. INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 29
Training Strategies § Three levels of training: 1. Individual Training 2. Training-of-Trainer 3. Faculty/Department-Wide Training Or Just Do It! INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 30
Evaluation (Currently Ongoing) § Objective: To assess the effectiveness of the REACH-SW program and determine the added value of in-person training workshops. § N=36 social work faculty from around the nation § All levels of education (BSW, MSW, DSW) § Four research groups: 1. Self-guided (no in-person training; CD only) 2. Individual training 3. Training-of-Trainer 4. Control (no REACH-SW materials) INSTITUTE FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SOCIAL WORK RESEARCH 31
REACH-SW Trainings § One-day pre-conference workshops at annual meetings of relevant organizations (CSWE, BPD, SSWR). § Regional trainings throughout the year. § Department-/faculty-wide trainings upon request. § CEUs available. § Technical Assistance and Ongoing Support § Ongoing support (online technical assistance, booster sessions, etc. ) will be provided to those who have attended a training on an as-needed basis.
