As you think back over the last seven weeks, you have all come a long way with understanding research and EBP. The week introduction stated it best: “Gone is the reliance on traditions, myths, and outdated resources.”

Think about nursing practice and describe one barrier that you feel prohibits nurses from engaging in EBP; share one strategy you could use to facilitate the use of evidence to help improve nursing care for patients.

Reflect back over your time in the course and describe how your thinking has changed about nursing research and evidence-based practice; describe one new learning during this course that you believe was the most helpful.

**Please credit at least your weekly lesson and your textbook within your posts this week. No outside references are required. Take some time and really reflect on what you have learned and how you can apply it to your nursing practice
