Evidence-Based Practice: What Is It and Why It Matters For Nurses

Evidence-Based Practice (also known as EBP) is an approach where research findings are applied or translated in a way that helps you improve your patient care or clinical decision-making. The idea behind this is to abandon outdated care delivery practices or protocols that don’t allow you to achieve a high-quality professional service.
We want to share with you a breakdown of what evidence-based practice is and why it’s so important you nail this if you are in the healthcare industry.

EBP is important because this is what will take the nursing profession out of the hospitality and service sector (we are treated like food service and hotel housekeeping) and into the STEM fields where we belong.

[@meas7762]

That is the goal ....however, that is not reality. The coffee, tea or milk situation is incorporated as an emotional/psychological need/connection. The public doesn't know any better and therefore translates it as "hospitality". Nursing has been on the track of "proving" ourselves for decades ...yet

[@americandissident9062]

@@meas7762 Unfortunately, the public seems to “need” coffee and drinks and food” more than they need actual healthcare. I’m burnt out on serving food and drinks. That’s why I don’t do it anymore.

[@meas7762]

@@americandissident9062 I'm right there with you. I can go on and on about this and many more. But will leave it there.

[@gradehacker]

wow very powerful statement 👏🏽. Would love to hear more of your thoughts

[@americandissident9062]

@@gradehacker I wrote several papers specifically about this during my program. Nursing is a STEM field (science for sure, maybe even tech to an extent), but the older population still thinks it’s 1950 and the little nurses should be running around in their caps fetching food and water and fluffing pillows. They literally do not care about medications or treatments nearly as much as they care about snacks and blankets. It’s soul sucking. I’ve had older patients enter a room where we are performing CPR to ask for a blanket and water. These people do not belong in an advanced society.

Sticking to sound rationale and the fundamentals of nursing is not what alot of nurses want to do - from the top down. Evidence based practice leads to positive outcomes yet its not mandatory for nurses to read about the latest in evidenced based practice...make it make sense??

[@americandissident9062]

Nurses really want to stick to what they know and what “has always worked”. They don’t want to change and adapt. Older nurses have this huge issue with doing new things because boomers simply dislike younger people.
