Evidence-Based Practice

The primary goal of this 2-credit core course is to promote an evidence-based approach to nursing practice. Evidence-based findings for nursing practice will be evaluated in terms of racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic relevance. An understanding of the research process, applicable theories, organizational dynamics, and leadership functions are applied to the design and process of implementing evidence-based practice in health care settings. Students will complete a group evidence-based practice project. 15 weeks.
