Use evidence-based practice to guide clinical reasoning and clinical judgment as a basis for nursing decision making

  

Evidence-based nursing practice is a guide in the decision-making process. In this course, I learned the importance of evidence-based practice during nursing care. I learned that evidence-based practice helps to provide updated knowledge in terms of care, improving the health outcomes of patients. I also learned that it allows me as a nurse to conduct a research evaluation to identify the effectiveness of specific treatments and conditions. It will impact my practice by guiding clinical reasoning and management of various conditions.

Collaborate in healthcare delivery systems settings for improved patient outcomes

The other skill that I learned in this module is collaboration. I learned that teamwork helps in the holistic care provided to patients. When different specialties assess and review a patient, there is a higher chance of not missing out on any problem. I also learned that collaboration is better enhanced through interprofessional communication. This will impact my practice by establishing a good rapport with other healthcare providers and patients.
