Nursing practice needs to be research based.
Patient outcomes need to be documented, improved, and measurable. Nursing standards of care need to be rooted in nursing research and guided by practice that reflects the rigors of scientific inquiry and study. Research needs to be planted at the bedside with the staff nurses involved daily in the process of implementation and evaluation of their practice as it affects patient outcomes. This dynamic, integrated process of research needs to begin if an organization hopes to be research based in their nursing practice. It is a process which is deliberate, planned, organizational, collaborative and ongoing.
