Summary
Evidence-based practice (EBP) is crucial in nursing. Continuing education program planners can help nurses overcome barriers to EBP by ensuring educational content uses the best available evidence.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Science
- Healthcare Education
Background:
- Professional groups advocate for evidence-based practice (EBP).
- Nurses encounter significant barriers to participating in the EBP process.
- Overcoming these barriers is essential for advancing nursing standards.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify the role of continuing nursing education program planners in facilitating nurse involvement in EBP.
- To explore strategies for overcoming barriers to EBP implementation in nursing.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of the role of continuing education in EBP.
- Focus on collaboration between program planners, presenters, and content developers.
Main Results:
- Continuing nursing education program planners are pivotal in addressing EBP barriers.
- Ensuring educational content is evidence-based is a key strategy.
- Collaboration is essential for successful EBP integration.
Conclusions:
- Program planners can significantly impact EBP adoption by nurses.
- Focusing on evidence-based content in continuing education is vital.

2.4K
Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.

The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.
