Goals and Learning Outcomes

Hospitals are standardizing care based on the best evidence to reduce inconsistencies, improve high-quality and safe patient care, and minimize costs. Nurses and leaders alike are responsible for accelerating efforts to ensure the adoption of evidence-based practice exists and is embedded into all aspects of patient care. This course presents various evidence-based practice (EBP) models and frameworks that aid nurses in translating the best evidence into practice. Adopting an EBP model creates a standardized approach to inquiry and guides the implementation of best practices.

The goal of this course is to inform nursing professionals with an understanding of how to implement evidence-based practice in their practice setting to improve healthcare quality, safety, and outcomes.


After taking this course, you should be able to:

  • Identify the seven steps of the EBP Process.
  • Determine a PICO-T question from a clinical practice question.
  • Name three steps for leading the implementation of EBP.
  • Explain three models, frameworks, and theories used to implement EBP.
