Use BC’s clinical practice guidelines
The multitude of available clinical practice guidelines around the world are challenging to interpret and adopt. That’s why Doctors of BC and the Ministry of Health Services of BC have jointly sponsored the Guidelines and Protocols Advisory Committee. This committee reviews all of the available guidelines and other evidence to produce the BC Clinical Practice Guidelines and Protocols--practical and easy-to-follow guidelines modified for our BC context.
