It’s likely no surprise that the US is in the midst of a national nursing shortage. Virtual Nursing is an innovative solution to help sustain new models of care while also providing experienced support to the novice nursing workforce. Join us as we discuss how a pilot project at our large academic medical center has evaluated the impact of virtual nursing on staffing models, patient safety, quality, throughput, patient satisfaction, and coaching to novice nurses.

Evidence-based practice is the perfect shared competency across healthcare professions and key to reaching the quintuple aim. However, many educators are left wondering, "How do I level content to engage students and clinicians at all levels to elevate their EBP competency?" Using the evidence-based practice competencies as a guide (Melnyk et al. 2014 and Albarquoni et al 2018), this webinar will explore how to level EBP concepts and skills across curricula and academic levels to raise the next generation of healthcare professionals to be evidence-based clinicians to promote optimal outcomes for all. 

This webinar will cover a plethora of different statistical models one might encounter when reading research with the goal of describing what each model is trying to measure without getting into the math. The statistical models discussed will include ANOVAs, ANCOVAs, Repeated Measures ANOVA, and different regression models. The presenter will discuss how to interpret these results in connection to the critical appraisal step within the EBP process.

Building a foundation of evidence-based practice (EBP) competency starts with education, however best practices are established through mentorship and organizational infrastructure. Engaging staff at all levels to implement and sustain initiatives generates system wide confidence in EBP. We will discuss how to calculate the return on investment of this combination.

In this webinar, the presenter will go over some of the different statistics that often accompany scale and instrument descriptions. With so many scales in use to measure different attributes, it is important to understand what makes them valid and reliable, which then ultimately helps identify if the measurement scale being used is truly measuring the intended attributes.

In this webinar, the presenters will discuss the current, chaotic state of healthcare, and how leaders must pivot to new approaches to efficiently make effective decisions and drive purposeful change. The focus is to highlight the urgency for leaders to intentionally leverage evidence-based approaches to navigate through these unprecedented turbulent times. 

In research projects, researchers often focus on statistical significance and overlook practical/clinical significance. In this webinar, the presenter will describe the value of effect size (practical/clinical significance) and go over the different types of effect sizes you might encounter or personally use.

This presentation will discuss findings from a recent study with chief nurses on their budgetary investment in EBP and hospital outcomes. Return on investment for investing in EBP will be highlighted.

Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) projects provide an opportunity for healthcare to address the many issues that plague it while providing an opportunity for DNP students to demonstrate competency in the AACN Essentials for advanced-level education. However, DNP students often get caught between the needs of clinical practice and academia. Join us as experts from the academic and practice side discuss tips to navigating DNP projects in academic and practice settings.

Although there has been a push for interprofessional education and practice in healthcare since the early 1970's, almost 50 years later. healthcare professionals still practice in silos in most places. The good news is, evidence based practice (EBP) is the perfect shared competency to bring healthcare professionals together! In this webinar we will explore the impact interprofessional education (IPE) and practice (IPP) can have on healthcare outcomes, why EBP is the perfect shared competency, an exemplar of how EBP can be leveraged in a large university and its academic-medical center to break down barriers and help move interprofessional education and practice forward, and an exemplar of outcomes realized when an interprofessional team used EBP to address a quality issue.

During this webinar, the speakers will:

• Discuss utilization of the new Practice and Process Improvement; Integrated Evidence-based Quality Model
• Identify how Evidence-based Practice and Process Improvement methodology work together to support quality outcomes.

In this webinar, you will learn more about the EBP Certification and why it is important to support nursing and inter-professionals in the EBP Mentor Role.

Ever dream of taking your students to another country but are not sure how to do it?? Come learn how faculty from the University of the West Indies (UWI) in Mona, Jamaica and The Ohio State University (OSU) College of Nursing made their dream come true utilizing technology to break barriers and bridge the distance! Learn how students came together to learn about each others' healthcare system and bring EBP education and mentorship to Jamaica through a virtual global classroom experience. Faculty from UWI and OSU will be on hand to share their experience and answer questions about how the team navigated planning and executing an experience where EBP experts and DNP students from OSU mentored undergraduate students from UWI in EBP, using technology to bring everyone together as we all strive to make the world a better, safer place through EBP!

This presentation will showcase challenges and opportunities to improving the implementation of best practices and the coordination of high-quality care in both health and social service organizations. Presenters will share their work developing provider- and organizational-level strategies to (a) support best practice implementation across the stroke rehabilitation care continuum and (b) facilitate access to substance use treatment services in child welfare agencies.

Navigating the DNP Project has been a hot topic of discussion in both academia and clinical practice settings for years. The onslaught of COVID-19 elevated these challenges to a whole new level. So what is the state-of-the-state of navigating DNP projects in academia and clinical practice amidst COVID-19? What are some key considerations and strategies to navigate these challenges in such unprecedented times? Please join our panel of national experts and peers from around the country for a national conversation to explore navigating DNP education amidst COVID-19.
