Abstract

The study aimed to determine clinical nurses' beliefs, knowledge, organizational readiness, and evidence-based practice implementation levels and identify the perceived factors affecting evidence-based practice implementation. A descriptive-correlational in quantitative approach with triangulation was used. Data were gathered through the administration of adapted survey questionnaires along with structured interviews and personal observation to supplement the data. Forty-two voluntarily participated and completed the survey. Frequency, percent, mean, and standard deviation were used to analyze and interpret the participants' demographic profile and evidence-based practice-related variables. Regression analysis was used to identify the predictors from the list of variables. For facilitating and hindering factors in the evidence-based practice implementation of clinical nurses, an open-ended question was asked to triangulate the quantitative data. Most of the nurses are female in their middle adulthood, have completed a bachelor’s degree in nursing, and have worked in the hospital as a senior staff nurse for considerable time. The result shows that nurses somewhat truly believe in evidence-based practice, have acceptable evidence-based practice knowledge, probably consider the culture and organizational readiness, and are interested in implementing specific evidence-based practice tasks. Also, it was found that only knowledge of evidence-based practice is a highly significant predictor of evidence-based practice implementation. Perceived facilitating factors include supportive policies, training opportunities, management, and peer support. At the same time, lack of knowledge and insufficient time were recorded as barriers to implementing evidence-based practice. The salient findings were used in crafting the policy brief.
