Nurses and other clinicians strive to provide the best care possible, and in today’s healthcare environment, evidence-based care is essential. Every patient deserves care that is based on the best current scientific knowledge. Every nurse deserves to work in an environment in which evidence-based practice (EBP) is supported and its results utilized.

We ask these questions in EBP:

  • What is the clinical practice question?
  • What evidence exists that will help answer the question?
  • How valid is the evidence?
  • How strong is the evidence or results?
  • How relevant is it to my practice?

Are you making EBP part of your practice?
