Hello Jennifer,
It is an important part in a nurses career to be able to provide the best care possible to their patients. The nursing field has come a long way and nurses need to be able to keep up with all its changes to be able to provide an opportunity for the patient to have the best outcome. Although each nursing role carries different responsibilities, the main goal of a professional nurse stays the same. The role of the nurse continues to change and evolve with different responsibilities in different settings (Helbig, 2022). Like you had mentioned, evidence-based practices are essential in nursing as they help bring together the research that is done to the nursing practice. It all correlates together to provide patient with quality care.
