Abstract

A 1-year program for select clinical nurse experts led to increased comfort in using evidence-based practice strategies. Nurses identified specific barriers and facilitators for evidence-based practice efforts, accomplished individual goals, and saw changes in their practice roles. Results from the program and its evaluation are that staff can benefit from such an effort (4-day course with specific follow-up activities).
