NURS8100 Week 7 Discussion There are many hurdles

 ENABLERS AND BARRIERS TO TRANSLATION

There are many hurdles to overcome when it comes to the translation of evidence into practice. As noted in White et al. (2024), of all the identified evidence, only about half of it is ever actually put into practice. Thus, being able to detect the potential enablers and barriers that you may encounter when implementing an EBP initiative is critical to your success. For this Discussion, you will draw on your professional experience in healthcare settings to consider specific enablers and barriers to evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiatives.

To Prepare

· Review the Week 7 Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to the theories and best practice recommendations related to enablers and barriers to translating and applying evidence in support of practice or organization change initiatives.

· Select an organization and a practice or organization issue within that organization. Consider evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiatives to address the issue.

· Select  one evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiative on which to focus for this Discussion.  Note: You may reuse an initiative you selected earlier in this course or select a new one.

· Think about the kinds of  enablers you might encounter when translating and applying evidence for the evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiative you selected. 

· Think about the kinds of  barriers you might encounter when translating and applying evidence for the evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiative you selected. 

· Consider the ways in which you might address the barriers you identified.

By Day 3 Of Week 7

Post?the following: 

· Identify the organization you selected.

· Describe the practice or organization issue you selected.

· Describe the evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiative you selected to address the issue.

· Describe the types of  enablers that you might encounter when translating and applying evidence for the evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiative. Be specific and explain how enablers can benefit the project.

· Describe the types of  barriers that you might encounter when translating and applying evidence for the evidence-based practice (EBP) quality improvement (QI) initiative. Be specific and explain how barriers may challenge the project.

· Explain how, as a DNP-prepared nurse, you would address the barriers you identified. Be specific and describe specific approaches to address each barrier.
