Evidence‐based public health practice

Public health decisions that are based on critical appraisal of the best available evidence will lead to the development of interventions that have the maximum potential to impact on the health and well-being of the community. The principles of evidence-based practice are now well established for clinical medicine. Evidence-based public health is less well developed. How evidence-based decision making can be incorporated into work practice is illustrated. Public health practitioners have the responsibility to contribute to the body of evidence that will support decision making; advocate for evidence-based public health decision making; and advocate for resources to support evidence-based public health practice.
