Description
This grant supports nurses working in clinical settings to implement evidence-based practice (EBP) initiatives and rigorously evaluate their impact on patient outcomes. The program emphasizes translating research and evidence into real-world clinical practice, with a focus on nurse-led projects. Proposals are assessed on background, significance, problem statement, evidence synthesis, intervention plans, goals, implementation strategies, and evaluation plans. The ultimate aim is to foster improvements in patient care by supporting projects that effectively bridge the gap between research and practice.
