An essential component of the Magnet journey: fostering an environment for evidence-based practice and nursing research.
Creating, advancing, and sustaining a practice environment grounded in evidence-based practice and nursing research is essential to achieving Magnet status. The purpose of this article is 2-fold. First, to describe a model for the integration of evidence-based practice. Second, to illustrate how a community hospital used this model as a framework for the integration of evidence-based practice and nursing research as part of its journey toward achieving Magnet status.
