Abstract

This item record pertains to an excerpt from Transforming Nursing Through Knowledge, which is provided free of charge by the publisher.

About this book: From conceptual and programmatic underpinnings to lived experiences of faculty, students, nurse executives, and bedside nurses, Transforming Nursing Through Knowledge leaves no stone unturned, allowing readers to gain a full understanding of a nurse’s role in developing, using, and evaluating the impact of knowledge tools in healthcare. Authors Doris Grinspun and Irmajean Bajnok designed this text to be a practical, go-to book for healthcare organizations, nurse executives, and professionals learning to create world-class evidence-based cultures—how to get started, move forward, and achieve results. This book will help you:

  • Understand the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) Best Practice Guidelines (BPG) Program and its galvanizing power as a global movement that builds collective identity
  • Discover the latest in guideline development, implementation science, and evaluation at scale
  • Tackle healthy work environment challenges using BPGs to influence outcomes for health professionals, patients, organizations, and health systems
  • Use implementation science and social movement strategies to successfully implement BPGs in academic and service settings
  • Recognize that transferring and sustaining evidence uptake require active and multilevel interventions
  • Learn to integrate technology, including nursing order sets, to support evidence-based clinical decision making
  • Propel large-scale organizational and health system change using diffusion theory and social movement thinking
  • Be inspired by nursing associations taking political leadership to secure the highest-quality health system for the public

Transforming Nursing Through Knowledge enables readers to learn from the evolution of a successful largescale global program focused on advancing evidence to practice, evidence to work environments, and evidence to policy to bring about deep organizational and health system change.
