Evidence Based Care Sheets & Quick LessonsWhat’s the Difference?

Quick LessonsDocuments that provide nurses with information they need about diseases – including a description of the disease, its signs and symptoms, typical tests the clinician will order to diagnose it – or measure progress in treating it – and the interventions nurses will likely be involved in while the patient is in his/her care.

Evidence-Based Care SheetsDocuments that provide evidence about aspects of a disease or a condition in terms of what we know about it and what we can do about it. The evidence is coded as to its strength/source so the reader can evaluate it and determine its applicability to his/her practice.
