From conceptual and programmatic underpinnings to lived experiences of faculty, students, nurse executives, and bedside nurses. Transforming Nursing Through Knowledge leaves no stone unturned, allowing readers to gain a full understanding of a nurse’s role in developing, using, and evaluating the impact of knowledge tools in healthcare. Authors Doris Grinspun and Irmajean Bajnok designed this text to be a practical, go-to book for healthcare organizations, nurse executives, and professionals learning to create world-class evidence-based cultures-how to get started, move forward, and achieve results. This book will help you:
- Understand the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) Best Practice Guidelines (BPG) Program and its galvanizing power as a global movement that builds collective identity
- Discover the latest in guideline development, implementation science, and evaluation at scale
- Tackle healthy work environment challenges using BPGs to influence outcomes for health professionals, patients, organizations, and health systems
- Use implementation science and social movement strategies to successfully implement BPGs in academic and service settings
- Recognize that transferring and sustaining evidence uptake require active and multilevel interventions
- Learn to integrate technology, including nursing order sets, to support evidence-based clinical decision making
- Propel large-scale organizational and health system change using diffusion theory and social movement thinking
- Be inspired by nursing associations taking political leadership to secure the highest-quality health system for the public
Transforming Nursing Through Knowledge enables readers to learn from the evolution of a successful large-scale global program focused on advancing evidence to practice, evidence to work environments, and evidence to policy to bring about deep organizational and health system change.
