Project Overview:
This project will take you through the steps of evidence-based practice (EBP). According to QSEN, EBP is to "integrate best current evidence with clinical expertise and patient/family preferences and values for delivery of optimal health care". As a future nurse, you must embrace the spirit of inquiry mentioned previously. After completing this five-part project you will have a better understanding of how this process works and how it improves patient care.
The final piece of the project is due in Module however; there are other due dates that you need to be aware of.
Requirements:
Clinical Question - Formulate a clinical question using the PICOT format.
Resources - Search and evaluate literature on your chosen topic. Turn in a reference page in APA format. You must use three (3) or more relevant sources; to ensure the readings are relevant and current, the selected peer reviewed article must have been written within the past three (3) years.
Paper Submission - Your written assignment for the course project should be a 2-3 page APA paper (not including title page and the reference page) that describes the clinical problem and the following:
