Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Evidence-informed practice and policy at the macro level offers great potential for honoring ethical guidelines to integrate practice and research, to involve clients as informed participants, to respond ethically to problems of scarce resources, to enhance social and economic justice, and to empower clients. The process and philosophy of evidence-informed practice and care as described in original sources suggest a decision-making process designed to help social workers to integrate ethical, evidentiary, and application concerns. As with all innovations, objections will and should be raised. There are many challenges and obstacles to integrating evidentiary, ethical, and application concerns in practice.
