title: The evidence-based practice concept: engaging interest and participation.
abstract: The TriService Nursing Research Program was chartered in 1992 to advance the science of military nursing to support mission readiness, to provide optimal evidence-based healthcare in various military settings, and to improve the health and quality of life of military personnel. In 2002, the Tri-Service Nursing Research Program created the evidence-based practice initiative to foster excellence in military nursing care through the evidence-based practice in the military healthcare system. The evidence-based practice initiative has been coherently and successfully implemented throughout the military healthcare systems largely due to strong commitment and support from all management levels across services and across components.
