Professional journaling clubs help promote evidence-based practice as a positive change. Have you implemented one at your facility?

摘要

Is the care I provide to my patients based on current evidence? Do my colleagues provide care in the same way? How can I make a change that will improve my patients' outcomes?" Nurses may ask themselves these questions to assess their own use of evidence-based practice (EBP). Using EBP can empower nurses, improve patient outcomes, and increase patient safety.1 This article describes the impact a journal club can have on promoting EBP and positive change, as well as best practices for successful journal clubs.
