Presentations. com Ø Institute of Medicine (IOM) has strongly encouraged schools of nursing to include EBM in their curriculum so students can utilize both EBM and EBP in their clinical experiences. Therefore, their practice is based on sound research and scientific methods (Finkelman, & Kenner, 2012). Ø The American Organization of Nurse Executive (AONE) addresses the importance of evidencebased management practice in their strategic objectives which states, “Encouraging the utilization of evidence-based management practice and sound research to explore and support the interrelations of technology, facility design and patient care delivery models” (AONE, 2012, p. 2). Ø The purpose of this project is to provide an environment for senior leadership nursing student to select a current leadership/management research article with an emphasis on leadership principles and its application to the practice in nursing leadership and management. Ø The nursing student discusses their analysis and application to their current leadership clinical experience with their faculty. LIMITATIONS / CONCLUSIONS Limitations: Ø In the clinical setting, interruptions occur during discussion session with student and faculty. Ø Limited clinical time-frame. Conclusions: Ø The opportunity for senior nursing students to apply evidence-based management practice in their clinical setting. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING EDUCATIONAL PRACTICE Ø Senior nursing students have experienced evidence-based management practice to augment their evidence-based practice in the clinical setting. RECOMMENDATIONS Ø Share research findings with charge nurse, nurse manager, chief nursing officer. Ø Present at nurse manager meetings, at nurse governing board meetings, and etc. BIBLIOGRAPHY American Organization of Nurse Executives (AONE). (2012). AONE strategic plan.
