[Excerpt and supplemental materials for] Evidence-informed health policy (2nd ed.)
(Sigma Theta Tau International, 2023-06)
This item record pertains to an excerpt from Evidence-Informed Health Policy, Second Edition, which is provided free of charge by the publisher.
About this book:
What happens in health policy at local, state, and federal levels directly affects patients, nurses, and nursing practice. Some healthcare professionals, though, are intimidated by the complex and often nonlinear policy process or simply don't know how to take the first step toward implementing policy change.
In this second edition of Evidence-Informed Health Policy, authors Jacqueline M. Loversidge and Joyce Zurmehly demystify health policymaking and equip nurses and other healthcare professionals with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to navigate the first of many steps into health policy. This book translates the EBP language of clinical decision-making into an evidence-informed health policy (EIHP) model—a foundation for integrating evidence into health policymaking and leveraging dialogue with stakeholders.

About this book: One of the biggest challenges of evidence-based practice (EBP) is translating knowledge, research, and clinical expertise into action.

The book is a practical, easy-to-use that directs healthcare leaders through preparing, implementing, and evaluating any EBP process model and provides tools for topic selection, literature searches, research and evidence review, implementation,
and evaluation. The authors provide comprehensive building blocks along with strategies, tools, and tips to guide individual and teams who make the important day-t-day decisions that ultimately affect patient outcomes.
