Abstract

Graduate students need a firm knowledge and application of evidence-based practice (EBP) and research in order to promote positive outcomes in patient populations and healthcare practice settings. A capstone project can provide them with the opportunity to advance their leadership skills through project development, implementation and evaluation.
