Barriers in organizations to addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the barriers to implementation of EBP among nurses. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Zahedan City, South East of Iran, in 2014. The questionnaire of barriers to implementation of EBP consists of 27 statements which was distributed among 280 nurses. More than half of the participants agreed that 56% and 57% of barriers to implementation of evidence based practice are related to organizational and individual aspects, respectively. Participants identified barriers at organizational level included the lack of human resources (78.3%), lack of internet access at work (72.2%), and heavy workload (70.0%). Barrier at individual level included lack of time to read literature (83.7%), lack of ability to work with computer (68.8%), and insufficient proficiency in English language (62.0%).Barriers in organizations to addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice.

Age, educational level, job experience, and employment status were associated with organizational barriers to implementation of EBP. At the individual level only education was associated with barriers to implementation of EBP. Barriers to implementation of EBP occur at both individual and organizational levels. The indicator of quality in nursing practice is EBP. Hence, familiarity with EBP is recommended for Iranian nurses. In addition, knowledge of barriers will help health care system and policy makers to provide a culture of EBP.

The main issue for my organization in addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice

Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) is a problem-solving approach to the provision of best patient care based on the valid and best available evidence.   Time limitations and negative views of EBP as extra work is the main issue in my organization in addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice. Nurses lack sufficient time to read EBP-related research. Just like other care organizations, my organization apt to have a culture of busyness that is cherished and rewarded and which fails to encourage nurses to sit down and read, but rather rewards individuals who visibly engage in tasks with patients. Alatawi et al. Barriers in organizations to addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice.(2020) insufficient time is considered a key barrier to EBP implementation in nursing.  Nurses have insufficient time to read literature and keep up to date with research evidence. Nurses have limited time during their scheduled working to deliver patient care and EBP is viewed as extra work. Barriers in organizations to addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice.

Encouraging nurses to perceive EBP as an approach to the provision of t Might be the first step in addressing and resolving the issue of time limitations. Administrators should continue to endeavor to encourage all nurses working in the organization to recognize EBP as a constant approach to delivering patent care instead of perceiving EBP as an extra project or duty. Barriers in organizations to addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice.Nurses should be encouraged to utilize research evidence in making clinical decisions, rather than depending on what they already know or what they have seen their colleagues doing. According to Mick (2017), nurses have been at the front line in the provision of primary care by offering educating patients, coordinating healthcare, and improving health outcomes. Nurses need to fully understand that EBP is central to daily nursing practice for them to truly attain evidence-based nursing practice, Barriers in organizations to addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice.

Sustaining change can be difficult, as there are many variables that can affect implementation. One critical component of EBP is to ensure that practice change is part of an organization’s culture so it will continue to impact outcomes over time. Name two potential barriers that may prevent your EBP change proposal from continuing to obtain the same desired results 6 months to a year from now, and your strategies for overcoming these barriers. Barriers in organizations to addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice.

Long-term adoption of evidence based practice is required to improve and promote sustainable effective quality of health care to enhance patient outcomes (Koehn & Lehman, 2008). In spite of the proven benefits of applying evidence based practice in health system, various
