Abstract

This quality improvement project examined implementation of the John Hopkins Nursing evidence-based practice (EBP) model, a standardized EBP education curriculum, in a hospital-based nurse residency program. We found that EBP education increased nurse residents' EBP beliefs, implementation frequency, and competencies. Our findings suggest that adopting existing EBP curricula is a convenient and effective approach to EBP education. Staff development professionals should continue to support and advocate for the adoption of EBP education within their organizations.
