Abstract
Improving clinical effectiveness is a major challenge currently facing nurses working in the United Kingdom and requires a coordinated approach in order to ensure; that the information about which interventions work is made available; to those in a position lo use il. This menus that policy makers, administrators, and nurses need lo base decision making on the best available evidence. In this article we explore the background lo the drive for evidence-based practice and discuss how a group of nurse researchers have begun working with nurse administrators and practitioners in a large acute hospital to help change the rhetoric of evidence-based practice in nursing into reality.Keywords
