For many practical questions there are often no clear-cut answers. Different experts or manuals can give different answers to a question. Yet, it is important to know which of these answers is the best, the most effective, the safest…. Because, of course, you don’t want to use, learn or pass on any harmful or bad techniques or practices. But how to know what is the right answer?
In order to provide a clear answer to these sort of questions, the Belgian Red Cross-Flanders uses ‘Evidence-Based Practice’. The Centre of Expertise of the Belgian Red Cross-Flanders specialises in this area and is active in research and providing scientific support for techniques and practices.
