Develop a 3–5 page scholarly paper in which you explain the
diagnosis you researched for Assessment 1, and then apply the
steps of an EBP model to your search for evidence to address
your diagnosis issue.
The goal of using evidence-based research findings is to
enhance safety and quality of patient care and ensure optimal
outcomes are achieved. It is not uncommon to hear a nurse say,
"why change it as we’ve always done it this way." However, this
is no longer acceptable in today's practice environment. The
profession of nursing has evolved, and the expectation is that the
professional nurse has a scientific foundation to support the care
that is provided. As the profession of nursing continues to evolve
and engage in healthcare transformation, baccalaureate-
prepared nurses are expanding, taking on leadership roles that
include incorporating EBPs. To be able to do this, the nurse
needs to understand the criteria that make a resource credible,
as this is crucial when deciding if the research is valid and
reliable for implementation into healthcare settings. The nurse will
need to incorporate the use of EBP models.
EBP models are designed to assist the nurse in developing a
plan to gather evidence to answer a practice problem or
question. It is a systematic approach to direct the user to
incorporate scholarly findings into current practice. These EBP
models lead the nurse through the decision-making process of
evaluating the literature to determine the best practice evidence
for the practice issue or question.
As a baccalaureate-prepared nurse, you will be responsible for
locating and identifying credible and scholarly resources to
incorporate the best available evidence for the purposes of
enhancing clinical reasoning and judgement skills. When reliable
and relevant evidence-based findings are utilized, patients,
healthcare systems, and nursing practice outcomes are positively
impacted.
Review all resources for this assessment, as well as the scoring
guide for details of how this assessment will be graded. You will
use the specific diagnosis or health issue you selected for
Assessment 1. You can refer to the overview of common EBP
models in the Evidence-Based Practice Models media for help in
choosing the most appropriate EBP model for your issue.
Complete the following:
• Consider your diagnosis from Assessment 1.
• Explain an issue associated with this diagnosis that could
benefit from an EBP approach.
• Choose the EBP model you wish to implement.
• Describe each step of the EBP model of your choice.
• Apply the steps of the model to your search for evidence for
your diagnosis issue, and describe how you applied them.
• Locate at least three separate resources of evidence to
assist with your diagnosis issue.
• Analyze the credibility and relevance of each resource as it
relates to your diagnosis.
This is a paper and should be 3–5 pages, not including the title
page or reference page. The paper must be in APA format.

communication strategies to lead practice changes based
on evidence.
◦ Organize content so ideas flow logically with smooth
transitions; contains few errors in grammar/
punctuation, word choice, and spelling.
◦ Apply APA formatting to in-text citations and
references, exhibiting adherence to most aspects of
APA format.
