NURS 450 Perspectives in Professional Nursing (W) (SI)

This course focuses on nursing research as it relates to evidence based or evidence informed practice. Opportunities are provided for students to gain increased understanding of the research process and research utilization (evidence-based practice) in practice. The relationship between nursing research and the development of nursing science is emphasized. Individually and in groups, students appraise research articles, write a significance paragraph (paper), interpret nationally benchmarked databases and their impact on quality care, and a paper synthesizing an evidence-based research practice relevant to specific topic.
