Topic 5 DQ 2 Assessment Description According to the textbook, nurses in various settings are adopting a research-based (or evidence- based) practice that incorporates research findings into their decisions and interactions with patients. Analyze the role nurses play in improving health care quality and safety through the use of evidence-based practice (ESP). How do you see this role being applied in your workplace? What internal stakeholder perspectives would you need to consider, including stakeholder support, in order to successfully implement an EBP project in your workplace? Initial discussion question posts should be a minimum of 200 words and include at least two references cited using APA format. Responses to peers or faculty should be 100-150 words and include one reference. Refer to "RN-BSN Discussion Question Rubric" and "RN-BSN Participation Rubric" located in Class Resources, to understand the expectations for initial discussion question posts and participation posts, respectively. Nurses: Decisions and Interactions with Patients Evidence-based practiced helps to improve patient outcomes and especially lower healthcare costs. EBP also have scientifically proven evidence for delivering quality health care

to a specific population. It is very important to have this EBP because they are trustworthy and it helps nurses provide some method to use it correctly. As we continue being honest to all the patients that we handle, we also help ourselves to be trustworthy people, and being healthcare providers we also help ourselves to know the importance of loving our job and providing special care to them. The caring of the patient was very lovable like providing their treatment correctly. Some studies said that nurses' perceptions show that nurses generally view EBP positively and consider it important to better patient care. Nevertheless, it is a fact that the pace of accepting and implementing EBP is rather slow. Implementation of EBP places additional demands on nurses to apply credible evidence to individual client situations through searching related evidence, using clinical judgments, and considering client values and system resources. Access to relevant, accurate, and current information is becoming crucial for nurses to keep their knowledge up to date and adopt EBP. It was, therefore, considered desirable to explore how frequently nurses used different information sources to fulfill their information needs. Some information sources were presented under three broad categories: print, electronic, and human information sources. So these are some helpful tips for some nurses, they are very thoughtful and helpful to patients who need extra care. Some nurses have strengths including a strong moral while providing care with integrity, and have a strong focus on the patients. Patients are often vulnerable and trust nurses to be honest and make decisions with their best interests in mind. So in everything that the nurses do we have to put smiles on their faces to be good to them and because they put there extra time into doing their job honestly.
