Summary

Like all health professionals, speech and language therapists (SLTs) need to keep themselves uptodate with the research evidence base that is relevant to their field of practice and be able to show how this contributes to their clinical decisionmaking. However, it is not always clear to practitioners how evidencebased practice (EBP) can be properly embedded in their daytoday activities. In this valuable book, Hazel Roddam and Jemma Skeat present a wealth of instructive examples by SLT contributors from around the world, showing how clinicians, educators, and researchers have risen to the EBP challenge. Embedding evidencebased practice in speech and language therapy showcases the creative ways that SLTs are developing knowledge and skills for EBP, creating contexts that support the use of evidence in practice, and working towards making evidence easily accessible and usable. It includes reallife examples of how SLTs have encountered a clinical problem or situation and have accessed and used the evidence within their daytoday practice. The contributors come from a wide range of work settings, from services situated within large organizations to those in independent practice, and represent a range of clinical areas, from paediatric to adult and across speech, language, voice, fluency, Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), and dysphagia. This book is written for an audience of clinical practitioners, at any stage of their career, and is additionally a valuable resource for SLT students and lecturers.
