Systematic maps to support the evidence base in social care

Abstract

English Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE) aims to improve the experience of service users and practitioners by developing and promoting good practice in the social care sector by commissioning and disseminating knowledge-based practice guidance. This article focuses on SCIE’s development of the role of systematic mapping in social care in the UK. It describes the processes of mapping, with an introduction to the role of systematic mapping in delivering an evidence base for social care. Finally, it identifies some of the issues experienced and lessons learned from piloting systematic mapping in two separate social care topics at SCIE.
