Advancing Evidence-Based Practice in Nursing and Healthcare, 2nd Edition, is a straightforward yet comprehensive guide to planning, implementing, and evaluating EBP and QI projects to improve healthcare quality and outcomes.

Also new to this edition are 10 new chapters (including topics related to the impact of academic practice partners; nurse wellness; diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; population health and innovation; new models of evidence-based practice; and more!) and an entirely new unit on Evidence-Based Practice Innovation in Healthcare.
