Facilitator Guide for Evidence-Informed Health Policy, Second Edition

This facilitator guide for Evidence-Informed Health Policy, Second Edition, is designed to be a resource for educators in the academic, professional association and government affairs, regulatory, or practice environments.

In the main book, authors Jacqueline M. Loversidge and Joyce Zurmehly demystify health policymaking and equip nurses and other healthcare professionals with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to navigate the first of many steps into health policy. This book translates the evidence-based practice (EBP) language of clinical decision-making into an evidence-informed health policy (EIHP) model—a foundation for integrating evidence into health policymaking and leveraging dialogue with stakeholders.

For faculty in particular, the menu of chapter-by-chapter learning activities and case studies in the facilitator guide will help facilitate student learning about the public policy process and can be used as part of a health policy course at a variety of academic levels.
