Takeaways:
- Healthcare leaders are key to the success of advancing evidence-based practice (EBP) and optimal patient outcomes.
- Leaders who are knowledgeable about EBP, who create a culture of EBP, and who partner and communicate with their front-line staff will be most successful in promoting evidence-based care.
- EBP will be most successfully implemented and sustained when key EBP priorities, goals, and outcomes are identified, staff efforts are recognized, and accountability for intended outcomes is upheld.
