Abstract:
Evidence-based social care guidelines are essential for ensuring scientific rigor, relevance, and practical application in order to improve the quality and efficiency of social care services. These guidelines play a crucial role in bridging the gap between research and practice. The Campbell China Network has initiated methodological research for developing such guidelines, employing systematic reviews, consensus methods, and the Delphi technique. This project provides a foundation for evidence-based guideline creation in social care, aiming to promote transparency and strengthen the quality of social care practices.
