When good care is not really good care? How do we know when the data is actually good data, connecting the research done that allows something to be considered “evidence based” will actually apply in in the real world with similar evidence or outcome rates? What do we do when a theory, concept or clinical approach that was “debunked” in the past comes back around with a new shiny title or slight twist, but it is still not a good thing for us or our clients? In this training we will explore the disconnect between research and application. How good science can lead to not so good things in practice. And discuss how even the best intended policies such as attendance or mandatory minimum treatment recommendations can do harm. We will end by identifying three ways we can address the concerns above for the betterment of ourselves, our treatment, and our clients.
