ABSTRACT
AIM:
The aim of this work is to examine the effect of multicomponent interventions on enhancing the level of confidence of staff nurses with evidence-based practice in an acute care hospital in the United Arab Emirates.BACKGROUND:
Evidence-based practice is one of the strategic pillars of nursing practice and a key to organizational success. To effectively implement and sustain evidence-based practice programmes in clinical sites, well-designed implementations can promote staff attitude, knowledge, skills, and confidence in translating research evidence into optimal patient care.METHODS:
Experienced and bachelor prepared nurse managers in collaboration with the clinical resource nurse undertook condensed staff training and interventions for the evidence-based practice programme, where 70 registered nurses participated. The intervention was conducted over a period of time extending from December 2019 until December 2020. The study design is quasi-experimental using the pre- and post-Self Efficacy Assessment tool to gauge the nurses' confidence in evidence-based practice. Also, SPSS software was used to explore the effect of the programme.RESULTS:
Higher significant score on the evidence-based nursing practice self-efficacy scale postprogramme was noted (t = -7.667 and p value <.001).CONCLUSION:
Participating in a well-structured evidence-based practice programme would positively enhance the nurse's confidence in the programme implementation and promote an evidence-based practice culture in clinical settings. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGERS Nurse managers must recognize their critical role in promoting evidence-based practice among nurses. A focused and well-designed intervention may assist in establishing a culture of evidence-based practice to ensure the best patient outcome.Palavras-chave
