The textbook offers a clear and practical introduction to the basics and significance of health services research for the healthcare system. It shows how research can help improve the quality of care and close gaps in healthcare provision.
It is aimed at students of health sciences – both those with no prior knowledge and those looking to build on their existing knowledge. The book imparts sound specialist knowledge, promotes critical thinking and provides support for students' own projects, right through to their final thesis. Thanks to its modular structure, the textbook systematically guides students through all phases of learning. With summaries, learning objectives, examples and reflection questions, it facilitates learning and encourages critical reflection.
