RUA- Capstone Evidence-Based Practice Paper Guidelines

Purpose

The student previously analyzed theirperformance on the integrated comprehensive assessments and reflected on areas of opportunity and strategies to promote NCLEX-RN success and transition into practice. The student will now apply the priority concept (topic) to evidence-based professional practice upon which nurses have the ability to resolve or have a positive impact. There is a focus on the healthcare disparitiesof the individual, as well as ethical and legal implications to professional practice. The student will discuss how an interdisciplinary approachpromotes quality improvement for the patient and evidence-based professional practice,drivingpositive outcomes.  RUA- Capstone Evidence-Based Practice Paper Guidelines
