These results support the need for mentorship during the EBP process as nurses
learn new skills, including the research- and evidence-appraisal work (Newhouse,
Dearholt, Poe, Pugh, & White, 2005). At the end of the pilot, the EBP leadership
team concluded that staff nurses can effectively use the JHNEBP Model with the
help of knowledgeable mentors and that implementation of a practical EBP mod-
el is necessary to translate research into practice. The evaluation also included
qualitative responses that showed enthusiasm for the EBP process and a renewed
sense of professionalism and accomplishment among the nurses. Indicators of
success of an environment supportive of nursing inquiry included the following
conditions:
■■ Staff has access to nursing reference books and the Internet on the patient
care unit.
