An abundance of evidence can be found on almost any medical issue or health topic. Often, the availability of information is not the concern, but rather nurses struggle with how to convey the evidence to others and change practices to better reflect the evidence. Deep-rooted organizational cultures and policies can make some resistant to change, even to changes that can vastly improve the quality, effectiveness, and efficiency of health care. However, there are many strategies that nurses can employ to bring about changes to practice.
In this Discussion, you focus on how to create an organizational culture that supports evidence-based practice.
1)An evaluation of your hospital’s use of Evidence Based-Practice (EBP) and how it is furthered or hindered by organizational culture and policies.
2) Describe how you could disseminate the findings.
3) Propose a strategy for strengthening the culture of EBP within the organization.
4)Discuss a nurse’s responsibility to further the use of EBP, providing a rationale supported by specific information from the Learning Resources.
