Abstract

Evidence-based practice (EBP) is recognized as the goal for health care decision-making; however, nurse leaders sometimes lack the skills to guide staff through the EBP process. This paper describes the development and effects of a program designed to improve leaders’ ability to guide staff through the EBP process. Fifty leaders attended the program and filled out a manager EBP competency and culture survey before and after class. Results showed that a leader-focused class improves nurse leaders’ EBP competencies and organizational culture and readiness.
