http://www.otevidence.info/ This is a web-resource I located that outlines the steps to evidence-based practice. It talks about relevant databases that may be used to find articles, and how to appraise literature in order to determine how beneficial it will be in treating patients. I think this is a really good site to offer as a resource for occupational therapy practitioners that have been in the field for a long time that did not necessarily get enough exposure to research and evidence based practice in their curriculum. It gives a nice overview of what evidence based practice is and how to apply it in their careers.
