Question # 1 Where Do You Go From Here? (Graded, 25 points) Evidence-based practice relies on continuous knowledge to ensure best and safest delivery of patient care. Nursing research not only addresses questions generated from within the profession, but also formulates national research agendas regarding health. The Course Outcomes (COs) we will apply in Unit 8 include: · Recognize the role of research findings in evidence-based practice. Please answer the following questions, I Need 150 words or more: How has your thinking changed about nursing research and evidence-based practice as the result of this course? How can you apply what you have learned to your practice to make it based on evidence? as well as ideas you may have to facilitate EBP in your clinical setting?

Paper For Above instruction

Throughout this course, my understanding of nursing research and evidence-based practice (EBP) has significantly evolved. Previously, I viewed nursing research as primarily academic and somewhat detached from immediate patient care. However, this course highlighted how research is integral to clinical decision-making, directly impacting patient outcomes. I now appreciate that EBP is a systematic approach that integrates the best available evidence with clinical expertise and patient preferences.

I plan to apply this knowledge by critically evaluating current practices within my clinical setting, ensuring they are supported by up-to-date research. For example, I will advocate for the implementation of evidence-based protocols for wound care, and I will facilitate staff education sessions to promote EBP adoption. To further facilitate EBP, I propose establishing a journal club where staff can review recent research, discuss its applicability, and incorporate findings into practice. Ultimately, this course has instilled a greater appreciation for the ongoing pursuit of knowledge and continuous improvement in nursing care through research and evidence-based strategies.
