EVIDENCE-BASED Practice | Social Work Policy Institute. Partnerships to Promote Evidence-Based Practice Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a process in which the practitioner combines well-researched interventions with clinical experience and ethics, and client preferences and culture to guide and inform the delivery of treatments and services. The practitioner, researcher and client must work together in order to identify what works, for whom and under what conditions. This approach ensures that the treatments and services, when used as intended, will have the most effective outcomes as demonstrated by the research. It will also ensure that programs with proven success will be more widely disseminated and will benefit a greater number of people.

The Extraordinary School Counselor. Understanding School Refusal. Case Examples Rebecca, an eight-year-old girl , has always had difficulty attending school. Since she began third grade two months ago, her problems have significantly worsened. She constantly begs to stay home from school, having tantrums that cause delay in dressing and often result in her missing the bus. After arriving at school, Rebecca frequently complains of stomachaches, headaches and a sore throat to her teacher and asks to visit the school nurse with whom she pleads to call her mother. Her mother typically picks her up early twice a week. Nicholas is a fourteen-year-old boy who has missed forty-three days of school since beginning the eighth grade four months ago. Prevalence and defining characteristics As much as 28% of school aged children in America refuse school at some point during their education. 1 School refusal behavior is as common among boys as girls.

Rebecca and Nicholas are just two examples of how school refusal manifests in youth. Treatment Table 1 References 1. 2. The Power of the Positive Phone Call Home. When I first started teaching and was overwhelmed by the demands and complexity of the job, my survival strategy was simply to take all the advice that came my way and implement it. So when my wise mentor suggested that after the first day of school I call all of my second grader's parents, I did so. In spite of my exhaustion, I called each family and introduced myself. I asked a few questions about their child. I said that their kid had had a good first day. I said I looked forward to working together.

Throughout that year, and the years that followed, I continued this practice -- I had an intuitive feeling that it was key: The positive phone call home. When I taught middle school, this strategy made the difference between an unmanageable group of kids and an easy group. First I'd call parents of the kids who I knew would be challenging, those I suspected rarely got positive calls. Some of these kids were difficult, extremely difficult. I know how many hours teachers work. The Power of a Positive Phone Call | ASCA Scene. Comprehensive Guidance and Counseling eLearning Center.
