Background:

  • Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a cornerstone of modern healthcare, guiding clinical decisions.
  • Nurses' engagement in policy development is crucial for effective healthcare systems.
  • The policy development process is often perceived as complex and inaccessible to frontline nurses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To reframe policy development as an evidence-based decision-making process.
  • To demonstrate the applicability of evidence-based practice principles to policy design.
  • To encourage greater nurse administrator involvement in healthcare policy.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on evidence-based practice and policy development.
  • Analysis of policy development as a systematic process.
