NURS 8410 Week 10: Assessment of
Outcomes
NURS 8410 Week 10: Assessment of Outcomes
“One of the great mistakes is to judge policies and programs by
their intentions rather than their results.”
—Milton Friedman
How do you measure the success of a translation project to
determine if new practice approaches actually make a difference?
Evaluating the results or outcomes of the translation of evidence
into practice is the key. Only by evaluating the outcomes can you
ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of your new practice
approaches. NURS 8410 Week 10: Assessment of Outcomes
During Week 9, you outlined desired outcomes for the issue you
have been addressing through your EBP Project. In the Discussion,
you suggested changes at the micro and/or macro systems level
to improve quality outcomes.
This week, you determine how the success of the new practice
approaches can be evaluated. Then, you explore the next steps of
translating research evidence into new guidelines for practice,
and ultimately, standards of care. You also continue your
practicum experience.
