You may begin posting on Sunday, January 6th, 2018 for credit. Before diving into this discussion, reflect on your course outcomes for this week: 1. Examine the sources of knowledge that contribute to professional nursing practice. 4. Evaluate published nursing research for credibility & clinical significance related to evidence-based practice. 5. Recognize the role of research findings in evidence-based practice. As a nursing student (or possibly where you currently work as a nursing assistant or patient care technician), you have likely encountered situations where you identified improvement is warranted. Maybe you discussed these issues with your clinical instructor or in a huddle with your clinical supervisor? Maybe you were able to watch the situation evolve into a change for the better?
