Document Summary

Chapter one evaluating health services: multidisciplina ry collaboration. Research is the systematic and rigorous process of enquiry which aims to describe phenomena and to develop and test explanatory concepts and theories. Research methods should not be seen in isolation from one another; it is recommended to use a t riangulated or combined methodological approach to address different facets of a research issue. If research aims to find information on topic that little is known about, too complex, sensitive for the development of standardized tools, then qualitative measurements should be used. For research that aims to find cause-and-effect issues, then the experimental design is required. Qualitative research findings can enhance quantitative data by placing it into real social contexts. The true experimental design: randomised controlled t rial (rct), but not always ideal. Health research: defined in relation to health generally; emphasis on health services and informing the planning and operation of services aiming to achieve health.
