Evidence-Based Practice Project Proposal – Part D: Implementation Plan

The purpose of this assignment is to examine the elements associated with implementing an evidence-based intervention. In 1,000-1250 words, discuss the following aspects of implementation and explain how they apply to your proposed project.

Part A:

Apply an evidence-based practice (EBP) model or change model to your implementation plan.

Select a Model: Rogers’ diffusion of innovation theory is a particularly good theoretical framework to apply to EBP project. However, change models, such as Duck’s change curve model or the transtheoretical model of behavioral change, may also be used. Other conceptual models presented, such as a utilization model (Stetler’s model) and EBP models (the Iowa model and ARCC model) can also be used as a framework for applying your evidence-based intervention in clinical practice.

Application of Model: Apply one of the above-mentioned models, or another EBP model or change model, and carry your implementation through each of the stages, phases, or steps identified in the chosen model. An outline of the conceptual model is required as part of the appendices in the final paper.

Evidence-based health care practices are available for a number of conditions such as asthma, heart failure, and diabetes. However, these practices are not always implemented in care delivery, and variation in practices abound. Traditionally, patient safety research has focused on data analyses to identify patient safety issues and to demonstrate that a new practice will lead to improved quality and patient safety. Much less research attention has been paid to how to implement practices. Yet, only by putting into practice what is learned from research will care be made safer. Implementing evidence-based safety practices are difficult and need strategies that address the complexity of systems of care, individual practitioners, senior leadership, and—ultimately—changing health care cultures to be evidence-based safety practice environments.

Nursing has a rich history of using research in practice, pioneered by Florence Nightingale. Although during the early and mid-1900s, few nurses contributed to this foundation initiated by Nightingale, the nursing profession has more recently provided major leadership for improving care through application of research findings in practice.
