Abstract

This project challenges long held nursing practices that might not be best for the patient and ignited a spirit of inquiry among nursing staff at Baptist Health Care (BHC) in pilot units. The aim of this project is to examine nursing practices that are not supported by evidence based research and to give nurses an avenue to submit ideas and tools to promote involvement in changing their own practice.
