Nursing

Description:

The emphasis for this course is on the elements of evidence-based practice.

Integration of the existing evidence with clinical judgment, patient preferences, interprofessional perspectives, and other resources forms the basis for the clinical decision-making process that is inherent in improving patient, population, and organizational outcomes.
