Most Geriatric Patients Suffer From Numerous Memory Problems
This week we will be focusing on how evidence can be used in practice. Your textbook does a good job of providing various examples of the EBP process. Each chapter in your assigned reading this week tells a different EBP implementation story/ example. The chapters are labeled by clinical area; however, each chapter highlights an exemplar of an EBP initiative that can be applicable to a variety of settings. Skim through all of the chapters and choose the chapter with the exemplar that best fits with your project to read more in depth. The exemplars in the chapters should help you with your Clinical EBP Putting it all Together Project Part III.
