title: Overcoming barriers to research utilization and evidence-based practice among staff nurses.
abstract: Several barriers exist to research utilization among staff nurses. Two barriers that appear in the research are lack of knowledge about research utilization and perceived lack of organizational support. The goal of this article is to present recommendations to overcome these barriers so that staff development educators can promote research utilization and evidence-based practice.
