        clinical questions.
        D Regardless of nursing education, the only nurse who should interpret research
        findings is the one who has the most comprehensive understanding of statistical

          evidence, but it is not the overall value of developing evidence-informed nursing
          practice.
          C Developing a unique body of nursing knowledge is important but is not the
          overall value of developing evidence-informed nursing practice.
