IN TEXT: (Chang et al., 2010)
Directions:
You will read an assigned article and describe the model and strategies that were used for reducing barriers and implementing evidence-based practices. Your instructor will assign each student to a group and an article that describes how a change, based on evidence-based practice, was implemented.
Read the assigned article and write a short summary (offline in word processing software), including the following topics below.
1. Put your name above your article summary with a short caption (so I know who to give points to)
2. In the first sentence, cite the source (Authors, Year) and the purpose of it. (do NOT repeat the full title and journal name since that is in the reference list)
3. Type of study and level of evidence on Melnyk&Fineout-Overholt's evidence scale. You can expect that several of these will be Level VI descriptive studies or Level VII expert opinion, unless they specifically stated another type of research.
4. What model or steps were used to promote implementation of EBP change? If no model was clearly described in the article, then select one from the textbook Chapter 13 that resembled their process or could be used.
5. What strategies were used or recommended to be used to enhance implementation or motivate change?
6. What were some barriers to EBP implementation?
7. Full reference in APA format
