Abstract:
Enculturation of evidence-based practice (EBP) is a continuing challenge. This article describes a novel pathway for staff development educators to fast track the teaching-learning of the EBP skills set and the immediate full cycle application of the EBP process at point of care. The pathway, called EBP Literacy, offers an asynchronous stepwise approach to learning EBP in an iterative process from the bedside to bench side and back to the bedside.
