Evidenced-Based Practice (EBP) Summary
Introduction
The focus on the article by Wilson, Banner, Austria and Wilson (2017) entitled “Evaluating the Implementation of an Interdisciplinary Evidence-Based Practice Educational Program in a Large Academic Medical Center” is on determining the extent to which an EBP educational program is effective at helping nurses to maintain EBP over time. The study’s aim was to develop an education plan for a healthcare provider that would “increase exposure and understanding of the evidence-based practice (EBP) process with multidisciplinary healthcare professionals” (Wilson et al., 2017, p. 162).
Key Points
The study sought to promote the EBP process by creating an educational program that would help nurses and healthcare professionals obtain and implement EBP on their own during the course of their work.
The study found that while nurses and other healthcare professionals were able to benefit from the EBP provided them at first, measurement after a one-year period had elapsed indicated that the nurses and healthcare providers were not able to maintain the EBP over this time at a high level.
Steps Taken to Implement the EBP
The steps taken to implement the EBP were, first, to assess the culture of the organization where the EBP was to be implemented. This enabled the researchers to understand strengths and weaknesses and see where possible points of resistance might be. It also enabled them to highlight “educational gaps about what EBP is” with regard to nurses’ and caregivers’ understanding...

Nurses are well positioned to identify clinical problems and use existing evidence to improve practice and make care more effective (Beyea, 2006). Evidence-based practices enables nurses to provide high quality care based on current evidence. The potential impact includes better patient outcomes, contributions to the science of nursing, keeps practice current and relevant, increases confidence in decision making, and keeps policies and procedures current, supporting JACHO readiness. Some common practices in
In the previous section, Estabrooks raised the question of the ability of the EBP framework to provide the "best evidence" in nursing practice and the danger of excluding nurses in decision-making tasks as a result of EBP prevalence and dominance. Rolfe, while he analyzed the empirical foundations of EBP, also looked at it from a practical perspective, or how EBP is applied in the current practice of nursing. Identifying the
Evidence-based practice (EBP) is the method of gathering, handling, and applying research results to enhance medical practice, the work atmosphere, or patient results. Based on the American Nurses Association or ANA, medical treatments ought to be functional, systematic decisions centered on EBP scientific studies. Making use of the EBP method of medical practice can help to deliver the very best quality and most price-effective patient treatment conceivable. This document is

The recommended steps for EBP implementation are (1) develop a well-framed question, (2) find the best evidence, (3) critically evaluate scientific findings, (4) implement, and (5) evaluate efficacy. Step 3 seems to be a critical
