Abstract

This study identified factors related to the implementation of EBP from the perspective of paediatric occupational therapists in Kuwait. It provides several implications and recommendations for occupational therapy education and practice in the region due to similarities in culture. As therapists' concerns are identified, developing the educational curricula at universities and providing continuous professional development courses in regard to EBP utilisation are important for delivering effective healthcare services.
