Develop a plan to encourage or promote evidence-based practice in your nursing practice environment. Select a clinical protocol or problem. Use the following six phases of the research utilization process to organize your plan: (1) identification of clinical problems and access to research bases; (2) evaluation of the knowledge and the potential for application in the organization, along with policy and cost determinants; (3) planning for implementation and evaluation of the innovation; (4) clinical trial and evaluation; (5) decisions to adopt, modify, or reject innovations on the basis of evaluation; and (6) if the innovations are adopted, planning for their extension to other units (Horsley et al., 1978). Describe who will be involved in the process and how the new practice or protocol will be implemented. Finally, identify evaluation criteria.
