Nurse educators face challenges implementing evidence-based practice (EBP) despite its importance. Enhancing their knowledge and skills is crucial for quality nursing education and preparing student nurses.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Evidence-Based Practice (EBP)
- Pedagogy in Nursing
Background:
- Nurse educators are pivotal in developing student nurses' evidence-based practice (EBP) skills.
- Innovative teaching methods like online learning and research-based activities are essential for EBP skill development.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore nurse educators' experiences with implementing EBP in teaching.
- To describe the significance and advantages of EBP in nursing education for educators and students.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative research design utilizing semi-structured interviews with 12 nurse educators.
- Purposive sampling was employed at two KwaZulu-Natal College of Nursing campuses.
Main Results:
- Two primary themes emerged: challenges in EBP implementation and its benefits.
- Nurse educators showed positive attitudes but had questionable EBP knowledge and skills, with low research motivation.
Conclusions:
- Incorporating practice-based evidence is vital for effective EBP implementation in nursing education.
- Nurse educators must leverage EBP to ensure high-quality nursing education for student nurses.
