Library & Knowledge Services: Practice-based Research

 

Practice-Based Research

Practice-based research (PBR) is defined as the use of research principles, designs, and gathering techniques to answer questions that emerge from practice to inform practice*.

The practice-based research team provides mentorship and support to nursing and allied health point of care staff who may have questions or are wishing to engage in scholarly activities that improve patient care.

Have a question about research and don't know where to go?
