The Importance Of Evidence Based Practices In Nursing

It’s a challenge for nurses to stay current with evidence based practices. I too receive emails frequently but I rarely have the time to read them due to my workload. I work on a very busy inpatient floor and I rarely have time to eat and use the restroom. I’m sure other nurses lack time at their workplaces to search and read research articles. There is so much information being passed it difficult to stay current. Majority of the time I read my emails and stay current from home. It’s the nurse’s responsibility to stay current. The nurse educator at my hospital is great. Each year we have skills training and at the end each person is given a topic and she verifies that we know how to find the information.
