ABSTRACT
Translating evidence-based practices (EBPs) and quality improvement (QI) initiatives to the bedside is a significant need among hospitals and outpatient settings to improve the provision of quality nursing care. However, health-care systems continue to struggle with implementing and sustaining EBPs. To improve the application of EBPs and QI initiatives, hospitals should consider using Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP)-prepared nurses in Quality Improvement roles, as DNP graduates have acquired unique expertise in these topics. However, health-care settings do not routinely maximize the use of DNP-prepared nurses in these roles. This article provides an overview of the challenges to understanding the value and impact of DNP-prepared nurses, along with recommendations and opportunities for future practice.
