Promoting Evidence-Based Practice

Promoting Evidence-Based Practice Discussion 4
In recent years, the implementation of evidence-based practice
has been identified as a priority across nearly every nursing
specialty (Prevost & Ford, 2020). In addition, nurses are
increasingly accepted as essential members, and often as leaders,
of the interdisciplinary health-care teams. To effectively
participate and lead a health-care team, nurses must have
knowledge of the most effective and reliable evidence-based
approaches to care, increase their expertise in critiquing research,
and apply the evidence of their findings to select optimal
interventions for their patients (Prevost & Ford, 2020).
ASSIGNMENT: (Question that needs to be answered)
Identify at least five things you might do to increase your
knowledge and use of evidence in your practice. What are the
most significant driving and restraining forces to make this
change? Would you anticipate (overt or covert) resistance to your
efforts? Will you need to enlist support from others or acquire
additional resources for this planned change to occur? (Examples
might be administrative support, access to scholarly journals, or
mentoring.)
