Translation of Evidence Into Nursing and Healthcare

2020 AJN Book-of-the-Year Award Winner for Nursing Research!

Named a Doody's Core Title!

Serving as both a text for DNP students and an applied resource for practicing health professionals, this acclaimed text is grounded in an interprofessional approach to translating evidence into nursing and healthcare practice in both clinical and nonclinical environments. The fourth edition delivers fresh and updated content to describe the work of translation from initial planning through achieving a successful outcome. The text presents new exemplars for the most salient DNP projects and discusses how to implement initiatives into practice. Additionally, it is updated to reflect revised AACN Essentials and other national standards.

The fourth edition continues to describe theoretical underpinnings and practical strategies to lead translation efforts and meet DNP core requirements. It serves as both a scaffold for the DNP project and as a roadmap for DNPs as they begin to practice nursing at the highest level. Thirty new examples of successful translation projects demonstrate the process of working through a problem from meticulous investigation of the evidence through careful planning, execution, evaluation, and dissemination of the work. Purchase includes online access via most mobile devices or computers.
