» Barriers to EBP include organizational culture, nurses’ belief systems, and research-related
barriers.
» The National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators® addresses patient safety and quality
of nursing care.
» Change is a process that results in an alteration. Some individuals adapt well to change,
whereas others resist it.
» Strategies for transitioning evidence to practice include forming a journal club, creating a care
map, and collaborating with an APN.
» Kotter’s model outlines eight phases of change that can be used to guide the process.
» Journal clubs can be face-to-face, online, or hybrid.
» The cost-benefit ratio must be examined when planning for change because dilemmas can
arise when changing practices, processes, and policies.
