Nurses are expected to deliver high quality care with the latest techniques and information available. In order to do this nurses are required to actively participate to nursing research and critique them. Nursing research has increased greatly in the past three decades exposing nurses to latest knowledge, to provide quality care to the patients (Polit & Beck, 2004). Further more, to provide evidence based practice, nurses must be able to assess and critique research to evaluate and to judge whether the research is useful, good quality, current and safe to apply in their practice (Fink,2005). This…

Research guides decisions and changes we make in life founded on identified concerns in healthcare. As a nurse, my duty is to ensure the safety and well-being of the patients I serve founded on current research. The health field is ever changing based on well-designed studies that strongly support…
National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) is a branch of National Institutes of Health (NIH) that focuses on promoting and improving the health of individual, families, community, and population through its supports for research on the biological and behavior aspects that threaten the nation. NINR’s focus on improving health by developing strategies for health promotion and disease prevention; building scientific foundation for clinical practice; and managing and eradicating symptoms caused by illness, and improving palliative and end-of-life care. NINR’s are also involve in assessing disease risk and response to treatment with the use of genetic information: determining community- based approach that facilitates health promotion; and…
Evidence based patient care becomes a life long approach to clinical decision making to improve clinical outcome, and includes use of best evidence clinical outcome values of patient and there families. The purpose is to help bedside nurses determine the strength of evidence on the bases of the research methods. Evidence based nursing care is informed by research finding use of research evidence in clinical practice is an expected standard of practice for nurses and healthcare organizations. It determines the strength of research studies that says the findings and evaluates the evidence for potential implementation into best practice (Albert, Eastwood, & Edwards, 2004).…

The National institute of nursing research (NINR) is the pivotal point of the nation’s nursing research actions. It upholds the development and value of research in nursing and client care, delivers significant management, increases the amount of skilled nurse researchers, and serves as a point of communication with other bases of health care research. The NINR encourages and conducts scientific and basic research and research training on health and illness across the life span. The research focus includes health promotion and disease prevention, value of life, health disparities, and end of life. The NINR tries to expand nursing science by joining the biological and behavioral sciences, using new technologies to research questions, improving…

Evidence-based practice (EBP) has been emphasized since the publication of the Institute of Medicine’s report “To Err Is Human”. Nurses should be able to not only provide standard care within the scope of practice but also deliver safe care based on the best EBP that is most up-to-date at that time. Furthermore, research is developed based on the current evidence-based practice. Research nurses work on new projects to conceptualize innovative ideas, generate literature research, and conduct clinical trials to develop new evidence-based practice. The reason why evidence-based practice and research are important is because health…
