Evidence-based practice is now widely recognized as the key to improving healthcare quality and patient outcomes (Chien, 2019). So EBP is an essential component of the practice of a BSN-prepared RN. The BSN curriculum is more focused on EBP and providing high-quality education and skills training for the students. Evidence-based practice demands changes in the education of students, more practice-relevant research, and closer working relationships between clinicians and researchers. Moreover, it provides opportunities for nursing care to be more individualized, more effective, streamlined, and dynamic, and to maximize the effects of clinical judgment (Youngblut & Brooten, 2001).
