The Center for Advanced Nursing Practice evidence-based practice model: promoting the scholarship of practice.
The Center for Advanced Nursing Practice Evidence-Based Practice Model was developed for nurses engaged in clinical practice. It is a practice model, unifying various disciplines for best practice across settings in the care continuum. Each phase of the model's development is described in the manner in which it was used to guide a group of clinical nurse specialists. Clinical applications, ranging from systems- and organization-wide to unit- and population-specific initiatives are presented as selected articles following in this issue to support the efficacy of the model. Conceptually, the model engenders the heart of the practice and has made a difference in shaping the way clinicians think and the way they practice, individually and collectively. In turn, it has promoted the scholarship of practice in the care continuum across treatment settings.
