NURS-FPX6011 Assessment 3: Implementing Evidence-Based Practice

Sample Answer for NURS-FPX6011 Assessment 3: Implementing Evidence-Based Practice

The application of evidence-based practice in the treatment processes is essential in the current treatment and the general healthcare processes. There are different components of implementing evidence-based practice project. Undertaking research processes is one of the components in undertaking the evidence-based practice project. Also, there are different resources such as experts and the past studies that are critical in ensuring effective outcomes of the evidence-based practice (Alqahtani, 2016). Other components of evidence-based practice include clinical expertise, the integration of the best available evidence, as well as patient’s circumstances and values. Decision-makers as well as the practice management are also components of the evidence-based practice project.  

The complicated or the most difficult component of the evidence-based practice project was undertaking research processes on the current available evidence (Bernhofer, 2018). In other words, there are numerous resources available regarding evidence-based practices. However, finding valid and relevant resources can become a complicated process if the right procedures are not followed. Through continuous attempts, I have been able to identify the right resources required to successfully undertake the evidence-based practice project.  There are some evidence or resources that may be misleading; however, there was careful consideration before different information or resources could be used. 

The integration of the evidence, resources and the research outcomes went well and this led to the successful accomplishment of the evidence-based practice project (Beshir, Woreta, & Kebede, 2017). The evidence had a strong relationship with the clinical issue under consideration. Also, it was valid, reliable, and applicable to the clinical issue under consideration. One piece of evidence that I would give to the colleagues is that ensuring that there is enough evidence is critical in the successful completion of the evidence-based practice project.
