title: Putting the "evidence" in evidence-based practice: meeting research challenges in community psychiatric settings.
abstract: Every psychiatric client deserves access to treatments that have evidence of efficacy, but in psychiatric nursing, this evidence remains sparse. To address this deficit, researchers must commit to conducting high quality, community-based psychiatric nursing intervention investigations. In service of this goal, the authors draw upon their research experiences in community psychiatric settings to suggest options for overcoming system-, clinician-, and client-related research barriers in community psychiatric settings.
