DEBP 830 : Evidence-Based Practice III

This course is designed to build upon DEBP 820 and further develop an understanding for the evidence-based process. DEBP 830 will examine steps 5 and 6 of the evidence-based process: Step (5) evaluate the outcomes of practice change based on evidence and (6) disseminate the outcomes of the evidence-based practice change. Through the careful exploration of these steps, the doctoral learner will participate in group discussions, listen to lectures, complete a literature review, write a review of the literature, appraise the literature, write a proposal for a doctoral project, and present this proposal. This course focuses on the creation of a project, the development of a plan for implementation, and the development of a plan for evaluation to improve practice or healthcare outcomes. SRNAs will work in their groups under the direction of the course instructor to present their projects. It will be presented in a hybrid format (web-based and face-to-face) as a majority of work will be completed on the group’s time.
